Our mission is to deliver clean, affordable energy for all.

Our Small Modular Reactor (SMR) provides a British solution to a global energy challenge.

We are uniquely positioned to become a global leader in SMRs and deliver one of the UK's most exciting clean energy programmes.

The Programme Management Office (PMO) plays a critical role in turning ambition into delivery.

Working across major programmes and business functions, the team provides the governance, insight and controls that help drive informed decision-making, manage uncertainty and support successful programme outcomes.

In this context, we are looking for a Risk Manager to join our PMO team, reporting to the Senior Risk Manager.

Leading and supporting a network of risk professionals across the programme, this is a high-profile opportunity to shape how risk management is embedded, measured and continuously improved across a nationally significant infrastructure programme.

• Driving the development, maintenance and assurance of programme and work package risk registers.
• Facilitating risk reviews, workshops and health checks to identify, assess and manage risk effectively.
• Providing expert risk management guidance, reporting and analysis to stakeholders across the business.
• Supporting Quantitative Risk Analysis (QRA) activities and helping advance innovative approaches, including the adoption of AI in risk management and analytics.

As you can see, this is a pivotal role within our organisation.

You'll bring a collaborative mindset, sound judgement, and the ability to influence and engage stakeholders across a complex programme environment.

What we're looking for

• A recognised risk, project management or related professional qualification, or equivalent demonstrable experience.
• Experience applying recognised risk management methodologies and frameworks, such as ISO 31000 or equivalent best practice approaches.
• Experience supporting risk management activities within major infrastructure, engineering, manufacturing, construction, or complex programme environments.
• Strong knowledge of risk reporting, quantitative risk analysis, governance, and stakeholder engagement.
