The Department of Design and Construction is seeking a Risk Manager to identify, assess and mitigate risks in DDC’s extensive project portfolio. DDC currently manages a portfolio of over 450 active projects in the horizontal and vertical construction space including multiple projects worth several billion dollars each. Projects range from less than $10M and to above $1B. The portfolio has gotten increasingly complex as the City deals with an aging infrastructure, increases in security needs, mandates for resiliency, and projects touching all corners of the City’s five boroughs. Moreover, DDC has been given new tools to drive quality, safety, schedule and budget including design-build, CM-Build, and progressive design-build. Finally, the State has authorized DDC to utilize CIPs, including Owners and Contractors. DDC is aware that bonding and insurance requirements cannot be standardized across this array. We are looking to hire a Risk Manager to help the agency evaluate these requirements and ensure that the agency is including industry best practices within the public sector context. The Risk Manager will work under the Deputy Commissioner for Finance & Procurement and will be a key advisor to DDC’s General Counsel and the Commissioner. The Construction Risk Manager is responsible for assisting with overall management of comprehensive risk management program with a concentration on risk identification, risk transfer and risk retention techniques. Coordinates closely with operations/project management, while implementing risk management policies and procedures to protect DDC, the City’s assets when under DDC’s management for construction, and minimize liability exposures.
