Risk Analyst - Portfolio Management

Scotland Flexible

Together we are Trusted to Serve Scotland.

At Scottish Water, our purpose is to support a flourishing Scotland by looking after Scotland's most precious natural resource, from source to tap. We keep Scotland supplied with world class water, as well as care for our environment every minute of every day.

The teams across Scotland strive to ensure high standards are met and we are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated Risk Analyst to join the Programme Assurance Team.

This role requires knowledge of risk management, data analysis and interpretation. You will also need strong communication skills to present your findings to the wider business. Our aim is to support the effective and efficient delivery of the Capital Investment Programme

What you'll do

As a Risk Analyst in the Risk Team you will provide support to the Risk Team and Project Managers enabling them to deliver their projects with due consideration to Risk Management best practice. You will provide insights to the business into performance and compliance.

The position is a Hybrid position with a balance of home and office working. There is an expectation you will travel to a suitable SW office when required.

Responsibilities

  • Capturing and providing risk intelligence data to the business.
  • Timely monitoring projects to ensure information is correct, up to date and accurate.
  • Driving quality in how risks are identified, analysed and costed.
  • Supporting project managers in managing their risk registers.
  • Providing training on our risk processes and procedures.
  • Analysing large data sets within our systems and providing information to relevant departments and project owners.
  • Managing internal and external stakeholders.
  • Any other tasks relevant to this position.

What You'll Bring

A good understanding of typical risk processes, procedures, and best practices is required. You'll need the ability to analyse data sets and produce insightful reports tailored to a range of stakeholders.

Demonstrable skills in working with multi-discipline stakeholders, whether in person, over Teams, or running Risk workshops, are essential. Excellent communication skills are a must, tailored to the needs of various stakeholders.

A passion for driving quality, meeting goals, targets, and KPIs is vital for success in this role. Familiarity with using the MS Office Suite is expected, and knowledge of Power BI would be beneficial.

Strong organisational skills are necessary, along with the ability to be a self-starter and plan your own work effectively. Problem-solving abilities are highly valued, as is a desire to develop and promote best practices within the organisation.

Above all, a willingness to support others and contribute to a collaborative working environment is essential for thriving in this role.

Looking out for you

While the work we do is important, we know it's not the only thing that matters. That's why we make sure you have everything you need to find a good work-life balance.

You'll get plenty of time to recharge with 38 days of holiday every year (including public holidays). And you can even buy five more if you need a little extra time. You can also take paid time off to volunteer in your community.

When it comes to major life events we have family-friendly policies around adoption, maternity, and parental leave. And for the everyday? We embrace flexible working.

For your future, there's our defined benefits, contribution pension scheme (the 'know-what-you'll-get-when-you-retire' kind), as well as life insurance,

As for some nice extras? You can expect an annual company bonus. Not to mention access to SW Splash – handy rewards that can save you money on holidays, bills, and shopping.

The not-so-small print

This role will be a Grade 6. If you're new to Scottish Water, you'll join us on a starting salary of £33,560. Performance-driven pay progression would then allow you to move through the range to a maximum of £44,110.

If you're interested in this role – or know someone else who might be - we'll be accepting applications until midnight on the 12th of August 2024.

Job offers at Scottish Water are conditional, and will be confirmed on completion of our pre-employment screening, e.g. referencing, criminal record checks, license checks, etc. These checks are conducted on our behalf by a third party. Don't worry - we'll ask your permission before starting these checks.

A few final things worth knowing...

Research shows that some people avoid applying for jobs unless they can meet every single criteria. If you're interested in this job, but don't tick all the boxes, apply anyway We hardly ever hire people who can do every part of a job from Day One. Everyone has a learning curve. So don't rule yourself out

Let us know if there are any changes we can make to our recruitment process to help you perform at your best. Lots of our people have disabilities or neurodiverse conditions (including some of our recruiters). We're also aware that some people might be experiencing temporary challenges because of life events, like menopause. We're very used to making adjustments, so please don't be afraid to ask.

As part of our commitment to developing a flourishing Scotland, it's important that all our employees are Scottish taxpayers. If you join us, your home address will need to be in Scotland. If you don't already live here, you'll need to commit to moving here within your first three months.

Finally (finally), candidates who haven't submitted an application in the last 12 months will have their records removed from our recruitment database. You won't need to do anything. Your data will be automatically deleted.
