- Quantitative Analysis: Build and maintain cost/schedule risk models; run Monte Carlo simulations, sensitivity and scenario analysis; assess contingency adequacy; support rebaselines and funding decisions
- Mitigation Management: Help owners build measurable mitigation plans; track commitments and escalate stalled or ineffective actions
- Forward-Looking Analysis: Assess critical-path risk, vendor/staffing/funding exposure, and external dependencies
- Reporting: Deliver monthly reports and executive briefings; maintain auditable risk records
- Training: Develop risk-management training and quality standards; benchmark against industry practices
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree (engineering, construction/project management, business, economics, math, statistics, or related) + 8+ years in project risk management, controls, estimating, scheduling, or complex capital projects
- Experience leading risk management on a large, technically complex capital/infrastructure/scientific/aerospace program
- Experience with risk registers, workshops, senior-level reviews, and mitigation tracking
- Experience with Monte Carlo simulation, uncertainty/sensitivity analysis, and contingency confidence assessment
- Experience integrating risk data with schedules, cost estimates, EAC, and change control
- Strong analytical, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills
Preferred Qualifications
- DOE Order 413.3B or similar federally governed project experience; familiarity with DOE Guide 413.3-7A
- Safran Risk Manager, Primavera P6, EVMS experience
- Experience with rebaselines, recovery plans, or independent cost estimates
