Your future role

Take on a critical leadership role where you will shape and strengthen risk governance across major rolling stock projects and other ANZ programs  within the RSC portfolio. Working alongside Project Directors and senior stakeholders, you will act as an independent and trusted risk partner—challenging assumptions, enabling faster decisions, and driving proactive risk mitigation!

You will embed yourself across priority projects, rapidly diagnosing risks, stabilising performance, and deploying sustainable governance frameworks that enhance project outcomes.

We’ll look to you for:

• Lead proactive risk identification across complex projects by facilitating collaborative workshops and partnering with teams to identify and anticipate key risks early.
• Use structured risk assessment (likelihood × impact) to prioritise key risks, supporting clear, confident decision-making alongside Project Directors.
• Ensure robust mitigation strategies are in place, with clear ownership and accountability—tracking delivery and challenging effectiveness to protect cost, schedule, and performance.
•  Drive and deploy mitigation execution with Project Directors, ensuring ownership and effective risk reduction 
• Monitor trends and emerging risks across projects, providing timely insights and escalating critical issues early to prevent impact.
• Deliver clear reporting dashboards and executive reports highlighting key risks, exposure, and trends.
• Building risk capability and culture by coaching teams, promoting disciplined risk practices, and leading regular reviews and lessons learned.

All about you

We value passion and attitude over experience. That’s why we don’t expect you to have every single skill. Instead, we’ve listed some that we think will help you succeed and grow in this role:

• Degree in Business, Engineering,  Project Management or related field.
• Experience of risk management processes within large-scale industrial projects.
• Adaptability to work in a dynamic, fast-paced environment with cross-functional teams.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities.

You don’t need to be a train enthusiast to thrive with us. We guarantee that when you step onto one of our trains with your friends or family, you’ll be proud. If you’re up for the challenge, we’d love to hear from you!
