What you can look forward to.
You will take on a central role in the further development and management of risk management in passenger transport. In doing so, you will work closely with management and various specialist departments, creating solid foundations for risk-based decisions. You can expect a varied environment with scope for creativity and flexible working arrangements with Work Smart. As part of the SBB Risk Community, you will also benefit from regular exchanges with risk managers from different areas. Benefits such as a free GA travelcard and discounted travel abroad – also for the family – can be found on our website under Benefits .
What you can achieve.
- As a Risk Manager, you are responsible for the further development and professional management of risk management in the Passenger Transport Production division and ensure its effective and practical implementation.
- You identify, analyse and assess complex and cross-departmental business risks and develop appropriate control measures together with those responsible for risks.
- By consolidating the risk situation, you create transparency about significant risks and their development and prepare decision-making bases for management and committees.
- You accompany strategically important projects and programmes in identifying, assessing and managing their risks and integrate risk management into project control.
- You anchor risk management in planning and control processes and continuously develop methods, tools and processes.
- In cross-functional committees and in the SBB Risk Community, you represent the business perspective and actively contribute it.
What you bring with you.
- You think analytically, strategically and in a networked way, quickly recognise relevant connections and focus complex issues on the decision-relevant aspects.
- High personal responsibility, an independent working style and the ability to sustainably advance demanding topics characterise you.
- You have several years of solid experience in risk management, controlling, finance, consulting or a comparable environment and have independently handled complex risk and control topics.
- With your strong communication and conceptual skills, you convince different stakeholders even without formal authority.
- Knowledge of the rail and production environment is an advantage or the motivation to quickly familiarise yourself with the specific risks and challenges of rail operations.
- A university, ETH or university of applied sciences degree and German language skills at level C2 are required. Ideally, you speak another national language at least at level B2.
