Risk Manager

A career at KBR can change the world — and change your life. If you’re ready, let’s get started.

The KBR team of teams delivers future-forward science, technology and engineering solutions and mission-critical services that help governments and companies around the world accomplish their most important objectives, while also helping achieve their sustainability goals.

About the Role

The Risk Manager is responsible for leading risk management activities across projects, providing reporting and insights to key stakeholders and supporting effective decision-making throughout the project lifecycle. The role involves identifying, assessing, monitoring, and mitigating risks to ensure successful delivery and achievement of project objectives.

Operating within a complex and fast-paced environment, the position requires coordination across multiple programmes and workstreams, managing interdependencies while maintaining overall performance and delivery outcomes. The role supports the consistent application of risk management processes and governance frameworks.

The successful candidate will apply established programme and project management principles, tools, and techniques to manage risk effectively, enabling informed decision-making and ensuring that projects remain on track and aligned with organisational priorities.

What You’ll Be Doing

Lead the ongoing development and maintenance of programme risk registers, including the delivery of a comprehensive risk refresh across the project
Chair monthly risk review meetings and facilitate stakeholder workshops to identify, assess and manage risks and opportunities across the programme.
Produce high-quality risk reporting, including meeting outputs, risk dashboards and management information, providing clear visibility of risk exposure and emerging trends.
Work closely with Project Team leads to challenge, review and validate risks, ensuring risk registers remain robust, accurate and free from duplication.
Monitor and report on the effectiveness of mitigation actions, ensuring risks are actively managed and reduced in line with programme objectives.
Support quantitative risk analysis activities, including schedule and cost risk modelling, and findings to support informed decision-making.
Collaborate with Change Management teams to identify and assess programme impacts arising from changes and emerging requirements.
Lead the management of programme assumptions, maintaining the Master Data and Assumptions List (MDAL) and ensuring assumptions remain valid and appropriately controlled.
Provide strategic risk insight across the programme, developing risk profiles and trend analysis to support planning, governance and delivery activities.
Build and maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders, industry partners and suppliers, proactively identifying and managing risks that could impact cost, schedule or programme performance.
Promote a positive risk management culture through strong leadership, stakeholder engagement and effective collaboration across multidisciplinary teams.

What You’ll Bring

The role requires strong experience in risk management within complex projects or programmes, supported by proficiency in tools such as Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project to inform risk identification and analysis. The ability to analyse complex data, identify key risks, trends, and interdependencies, and apply recognised risk management methodologies is essential. Experience within large-scale infrastructure, construction, or engineering environments is important, alongside effective stakeholder management across multidisciplinary teams.

Candidates should demonstrate the ability to manage multiple priorities in fast-paced environments, delivering high-quality outputs to tight deadlines while maintaining strong communication and leadership capability.

Desirable experience includes working within defence, government, or highly regulated sectors, along with knowledge of quantitative risk techniques such as Schedule and Cost Risk Analysis (SRA/CRA). Experience in operational environments, collaborative delivery settings, and the ability to communicate complex risk information to senior stakeholders will further support success in the role.
