Cick on the links below to find out what skills we look for in our
consulting staff and what it is like
to work for Risk Solutions:
Consulting skills
As a Risk Solutions Consultant you will spend
most of your time winning and delivering client assignments. Depending
on your experience, you are likely to start by supporting more senior
consultants working on existing assignments, with a view to developing
the experience and expertise needed to lead projects and win business
directly.
If you want to become a Consultant with us you will need to:
- Have a good grounding in business, science, mathematics or engineering
- Have a strong interest in management and business issues
- Be numerate,
articulate and comfortable working with people
- Have good time and project management skills
- Thrive on challenges - such as developing
new client relationships, finding new solutions to business problems
and working on these projects through to implementation
- Be self
starting, tenacious and passionate about what you do
- Have experience
of working in a business environment.
Working and learning
All of our consulting staff have home offices,
although a significant proportion of our time is spent working with clients
or from one of our two offices. A key feature is the mobility of our
staff who are provided with everything they need to work wherever they
are.
We recognise that working from home brings its own unique pressures,
so we take measures to combat isolation and promote team working, such
as working in project teams, regular team meetings and various team-oriented
development activities.
Risk Solutions understands that the performance
of its people is crucial to its continued success and consequently places
a major emphasis on personal and team development.
Personal development
Each Consultant is assigned a Mentor who will help
with personal development by identifying development opportunities that
take account of personal desires and business needs. You will share responsibility
for making it happen together with your Mentor and our Development Manager.
- Training courses can be provided to fill specific skills gaps and
internal projects may be undertaken to broaden your experience (for
example carrying out Risk Solutions' research projects or taking responsibility
for an internal business process)
- We encourage people to apply for
relevant qualifications (such as Institute of Risk Management membership)
and often support can be provided for ongoing education (such as an
MBA)
- A range of literature and training material is available for personal
use in our library
Team development
Regular team meetings support team, business and product
development, and provide an opportunity for our staff to get together
socially.
In addition to the team meetings, development days are organised
throughout the year to develop our skills. Examples would be:
- Business
tools and consultancy techniques taught by external specialists
- Speakers
from client organisations invited to discuss issues within their industry
- Internal
workshops run by our own Consultants to develop specific skills in
risk management
- Team events held at locations away from the office
