We’re looking for a Risk Analyst to join the Civil Works Alliance (CWA) – helping deliver one of the UK’s most important infrastructure projects: Sizewell C.

At the CWA, we’re building the foundations of the UK’s clean energy future. Sizewell C will be a 3.2-gigawatt nuclear power station on the Suffolk coast, delivering low-carbon electricity to 6 million homes for at least 60 years. Our alliance brings together Balfour Beatty, Bouygues Travaux Publics, Laing O’Rourke and Sizewell C — working as one team to deliver this once-in-a-generation project.

We’re now recruiting a Risk Analyst to join our Project Management Office (PMO), initially based in our London project office with regular travel to Suffolk. This position will focus on delivering high-impact, practical risk management support across multiple sections of the project.

This role is ideal for someone who’s passionate about turning complexity into clarity. You’ll be working with planners, engineers, project managers and commercial teams to help identify risks and opportunities, assess their potential impact, and ensure robust mitigation strategies are in place. This is a chance to shape project decisions in real-time — with your insights directly influencing the safe, efficient delivery of a nationally critical asset.

What you’ll be doing:

• Supporting day-to-day risk management activities across one or more delivery sections of the Civil Works Alliance.

• Facilitating risk reviews and workshops, and ensuring the right people are engaged at the right time.

• Maintaining and updating project risk registers — ensuring they reflect current project realities and drive meaningful actions.

• Delivering both qualitative and quantitative risk assessments, including cost and schedule risk modelling.

• Producing regular, accurate risk reports for section leads, project managers, and the Risk Lead.

• Contributing to wider value and risk management initiatives across the Alliance.

• Supporting the development of cross-alliance risk-sharing mechanisms and governance processes.

What we’re looking for:

Essential:

• Strong communication and facilitation skills — confident engaging with engineers, planners, commercial leads and stakeholders.

• Solid working knowledge of risk management practices within major infrastructure or capital projects.

• Proficiency in Excel, PowerPoint, and Word — with an eye for detail when analysing data or preparing reports.

• Ability to work collaboratively in a multi-disciplinary team environment.

• Interest in learning quantitative risk techniques, modelling tools and risk databases.

• Comfortable challenging assumptions and asking the right questions to improve project outcomes.

Desirable:

• Experience using risk tools such as ARM, @Risk, PRA or Safran Risk.

• Familiarity with risk quantification, scenario modelling, and risk-based decision-making.

• Background in major projects with exposure to planning, estimating, or commercial functions.

• Membership with the Institute of Risk Management or a similar professional body.

• A relevant degree or equivalent experience in risk analysis or project delivery.

If you're excited by the opportunity to play a key role on a nationally significant programme — and you thrive in fast-paced, collaborative environments — we’d love to hear from you.
