Role description

Arcadis is seeking a proactive and technically adept Risk Manager to champion risk management activities for high‑profile infrastructure programs within our Mobility Global Business Area. This pivotal role will drive the identification, assessment, and mitigation of risks across complex projects, supporting data‑driven decision‑making and stakeholder alignment in a rapidly evolving mobility landscape shaped by climate change, urbanization, and digitalization.

Role accountabilities

In this role, you will lead the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of risk management strategies across major mobility infrastructure programs. You will be responsible for designing and facilitating collaborative risk workshops, ensuring that risk identification, assessment, and mitigation activities are robust, data‑driven, and aligned with both project objectives and client expectations. Your expertise will guide project teams in embedding risk intelligence throughout delivery phases, helping to anticipate challenges and seize opportunities in a dynamic environment influenced by climate change, urbanization, and digital innovation.

You will oversee the collection, synthesis, and interpretation of risk data, utilizing advanced risk management platforms and quantitative analysis tools to produce actionable insights for project leadership and stakeholders. You will regularly deliver executive‑level risk analysis and reporting, distilling complex findings into clear recommendations that support strategic decision‑making. You will also facilitate hazard studies—such as HAZAN and HAZOPs—to identify and mitigate safety risks, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards and best practices like ISO 31000.

As Risk Manager, you will champion the integration of digital tools and sustainability frameworks into risk management processes, continuously seeking opportunities to enhance project resilience and optimize outcomes for connected, thriving communities. You will provide mentorship to team members, sharing your knowledge of quantitative risk analysis, schedule/cost risk modeling, and regulatory compliance to elevate risk awareness and capability across the organization. Your role will require ongoing stakeholder engagement, exceptional communication skills, and a proactive approach to supporting both client and Arcadis teams, including working onsite as project needs demand.
