Reading Berkshire, United Kingdom AWE Full time

We need an AWE some Risk Manager to join our team and advise on risk and risk response management within our Operations area - to make sure our complex and often unique factories can deliver our vital missions. Can you be a helpful friend, constantly reviewing and encouraging forward management of risk to ensure that we succeed?
Location: We operate hybrid and flexible working, with our offices based in Berkshire between Reading, Basingstoke and Newbury with onsite parking and public transport services.
Starting at 41,840 but very much open to negotiation if you can demonstrate the capability to constructively help our production teams identify and understand the risks which might affect us.
You will be partnering with projects and corporate functions to provide timely, robust and realistic risk management to ensure our programmes deliver on time. A typical day for a Risk Manager in our Operations area could look like this:
Meeting with production owners across several on-site factories to identify risks to delivery
Supporting the creation of response plans through effective assessment of risk tolerance
Calculating and advising on level of tolerance and application of risk appetite policy
Regular review and management of risks (threats and opportunities) and ensuring compliance with corporate risk KPIs
Supporting and encouraging Risk Owners to think about risk proactively rather than reactively
Identify risks to the programme schedule and partner with Risk Owners to mitigate
Organising and supporting risk governance meetings
Experience of implementing risk management processes and tools in a large, highly regulated environment (e.g. Nuclear, Defence, Infrastructure or related industries at project, programme or portfolio level).
Experience of quantitative cost and schedule risk modelling
Experience of commercial risk management and investment sanctioning processes
Experience in dealing with complex technical and business issues
Experience in problem solving and negation to resolve, minimise or mitigate risk and maximise opportunities.
We'd like you have a professional risk management qualification (Axelos Management of Risk (MoR) or IRM International Certificate).
We'd also like you to be a member of the Institute of Risk Management (IRM) or an equivalent body.
So, when you work with us, you can take advantage of a great package of benefits and development opportunities on top of your salary including:
~25 days annual leave
~ Generous pension contributions of between 9% and 13% (AWE's contribution to your pension rises with your own pensions savings rate)
~ Flexible working arrangements can be considered so that your work may fit in with your lifestyle
~ Excellent personal development opportunities including annual membership of relevant professional bodies, training and mentoring
~ Everyday spending discounts - access to savings in a wide range of shops and services exclusive to AWE employees
~ Special Leave Policy including paid time off for volunteering, public service (including reserve forces) and caring for your family

Please log into AWE Careers to submit your CV and a covering letter. This job role is suitable for hybrid working, which is an informal, non-contractual and voluntary arrangement, blending a balance of attendance in the workplace (your permanent duty station) and working from home as a personal choice. If you are successful, any opportunities for hybrid working will be discussed with you prior to you taking up your post.
The successful candidate is required to carry out all their duties from a UK location and cannot do so from an overseas location at any time.
