About the role:

As a Risk Manager for the OPX EMEA Team, you will provide support across Engineering and Services projects and portfolios. This support includes portfolio and project-level risk management to help ensure that we identify, assess, govern, and communicate commercial, execution, financial, technical, and strategic risks throughout the project lifecycle. The project lifecycle spans from bid and contract award through delivery, commissioning, and closeout. This is a full-time job.

You will report to the Portfolio Risk Manager and be located at our HQ in San Sebastián de los Reyes. We will consider someone from the EMEA region. This is a hybrid position.

The top risks encompass multiple aspects, such as design, procurement, field execution, commissioning, and warranty/service obligations.
• Identify systemic risk patterns, trends, and new exposures affecting portfolio delivery, cost/schedule performance, quality, and safety.
• Support risk assessments for engineering and services offers following global Offer Risk Approval processes.
• Ensure that commercial, contractual, and technical risks are identified and reduced before approval. These technical risks include scope, interfaces, and design.
• Support partner agreement and endorsement through structured risk reviews with Engineering, Project Management, Services/Field Operations, Supply Chain, Quality, Trade & Compliance and Finance.
• Contribute independent input on risk exposure, contingencies, and risk transfer before contract approval, including lifecycle obligations (warranty, spares, and service levels), and support clarity on accountability and mitigation commitments.
• Support governance processes and contract handover, engineering kickoff, healthy start, and monthly project/services reviews.
• Support the quality and consistency of project risk registers during execution using approved tools and risk breakdown structures in consideration of engineering work packages and site/field activities.
• Monitor mitigation ownership and effectiveness, escalating where you do not meet governance standards (including EHS, quality, and subcontractor controls).
• Tack portfolio risk exposure, mitigation progress, residual risk, and impacts to cost/schedule, claims, and service performance.
• Support integrated portfolio-level risk reviews and contribute lessons learned back into engineering and services plans.
• Support assessment of portfolio risk maturity, identify gaps, and partner with Portfolio Directors to define improvement plans.
• Promote application of corporate risk policies, tools, and best practices.
