We are looking for a Risk Analyst to join the heart of the UK’s largest rail infrastructure project, Crossrail.

As the Risk Analyst you’ll carry out quantitative risk assessment (QRA) for both schedule and cost to support all aspects of the Crossrail programme commissioning stages (1-5) and support functions including commercial, finance, cost and planning.

Support the Crossrail head of risk management and risk managers at both Programme and project levels and take ownership of schedule and cost risk analysis.

Also you’ll produce reports and present the output of schedule and cost risk analysis and the impacts on specific Crossrail programme commissioning stages (1-5).

Your Day to Day:

• Quantitatively analyse the risk exposure of threats, opportunities and issues that could affect the Crossrail programme commissioning stages (1-5).
• Check that risks are regularly reviewed by their owners and that risk information held on ARM is accurate and up to date, including inputting of data as required.
• Quantitatively model identified cost and schedule risks ensuring that Crossrail programme quantitative risk models are robust and auditable.
• Produce quantitative cost analysis of the financial risk exposure to the Crossrail programme Commissioning stages (1-5) based on the outputs of facilitated workshops.
• Produce quantitative schedule scenarios for risk exposure to the Crossrail programme commissioning stages (1-5) based on the outputs of facilitated workshops.
• Produce an integrated assessment of both cost and schedule ensuring the link between both has been reliably assessed.
• Work with the Crossrail head of risk management, risk managers, project managers, cost managers and commercial managers to carry out cost and schedule analysis as and when required.
• Coordinate, facilitate and provide support to industry partners and PDTs around the input of cost and schedule risk.

About you:
