Altrad are currently looking for an experienced Risk Analyst to join the team.

The nuclear defence sector in the UK is vital for maintaining national security and strategic stability. It offers dynamic and challenging career opportunities for individuals committed to contributing to the country's defence and security. The sector seeks talented professionals dedicated to upholding the highest standards of safety, security, and operational excellence.

The Risk Analyst plays a key role in supporting risk management activities across the project lifecycle. You will be responsible for identifying, analysing, and monitoring risks and opportunities to help ensure programmes remain on track and achieve their objectives.

Working within a complex infrastructure environment, you will support the application of risk management processes, tools, and techniques, contributing to effective decision-making across interconnected programmes and projects.

Key Deliverables

  • Support the coordination of monthly risk review meetings, including updating the risk register, capturing actions, and assisting in the production of risk dashboards.
  • Assist in the identification of risks and opportunities, working with project teams to develop appropriate mitigation and response plans.
  • Perform risk analysis to ensure risks are clearly defined, appropriately assessed, and consistently recorded.
  • Monitor and track mitigation actions, ensuring updates are captured and reflected in reporting outputs.
  • Contribute to QRR activities, including supporting QSRA/QCRA modelling and quarterly SRA/CRA reporting.
  • Assist in assumptions management and maintain relevant documentation, including NBCC elements of the MDAL.
  • Provide risk insights through data analysis, highlighting trends, emerging issues, and potential impacts to project timelines and delivery.
  • Collaborate with internal teams and external stakeholders to support effective risk management practices.
  • Ensure adherence to established risk management processes and infrastructure procedures.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
