LET’S CUT STRAIGHT TO IT

Want to do the best work of your life? Playing your part in making a big difference to the environment and communities we serve. Our people make Severn Trent a truly exciting and inclusive place to work – a place where you can be yourself and let your skills shine.

Our purpose is taking care of life’s essentials, but we’re also big on making a difference, not just because we should but because we care.

Here at Severn Trent our central Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) team, imbedded within our finance business, are responsible for providing risk assurance to the Severn Trent Group.  This high-profile team brings together executive-level risk owners to manage the entire scope of Group risks more effectively.

We are on the lookout to bring in a new ERM Reporting Lead who will be responsible for managing the formal reporting process for the business so that we can provide monthly Executive action updates, formal Board and Executive reports and external risk submissions within our Annual Report and Accounts which go to our investors and senior stakeholders.

You will work closely with other members of your dynamic and bespoke team to ensure that we provide a timely flow of information so that our senior risk owners can provide quality updates on Severn Trent’s key risks.

Are you a Risk Professional with strong, proven experience of providing accurate and compelling reports to ensure your business’s current position is known and clear.

Well, if you are, read on.

LET’S TELL YOU MORE

This is a unique position at Severn Trent as you will play a leading role in many different elements which will ensure our risks are known and mitigated.  As part of the Risk Management process, you will effectively manage our executive and board risk reporting cycle and ensure there is appropriate review and challenge on all updated submissions to ensure consistency, accuracy, and style.

Your Stakeholder Engagement will be key as you will need to influence key people, at all levels, to ensure all risk information, updates and actions are completed to time and standard and you will also be expected to challenge and work with Risk Owners to ensure all risk reports contain the required information for the audience its being presented to.

We will look for you to head up the compiling of ERM specific reports such as ERM monthly, bi-annual, and annual Exec updates along with preparing Board and Exec risk dashboards. You will work with key stakeholders to update the risk section of the ARA and Principal Risks and keep tabs on Emerging risks. You will also provide relevant data and insights to help assist the Enterprise Risk Manager to manage risk, and risk communication within our business.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Of course, it’s important that we attract the right skill sets, and those with the right experience but we value character, positivity and a caring attitude in equal weight.

We want people who show up and roll their sleeves up. Restless spirits who are ready to be part of something bigger, who care, who really care... because when you really care, you’ll go above and beyond. When you really care you don’t just talk about it, you do more.

We’ll be looking for you to be excellent at report writing and have an ability to tailor reports to different audiences.  We’d also want you to have the confidence and ability to challenge and question information whilst maintaining excellent relationships with stakeholders.

We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality as we know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our communities. We employ thousands of people from across our community who really care about what they do. Because that is how we do what we do.

And when it comes to inclusion, we’re making sure we keep up the progress with our wonderful working groups – LGBTQ+, Women in Operations & STEM, Disability and Ethnicity; who help us do just that.

We do more, because we care.
