Your role

Atlas Copco Group operates in a rapidly changing environment shaped by technological disruption, geopolitical uncertainty, shifting competitive dynamics and increasingly interconnected markets. Management needs more than summaries of external events. It needs a clear understanding of what is changing, why it matters, which business assumptions may be challenged and what should be monitored or explored further.

As Strategic Risk Intelligence Specialist, you will strengthen the forward-looking capabilities of Group Risk Management. You will combine strategic intelligence, scenario planning, analytics and AI-enabled research to support discussions across Business Areas, Divisions and Group Functions. This is not a traditional compliance, insurance or risk-administration role. It is a business-oriented analytical position focused on uncertainty and decision support.

Your mission is to convert complex and sometimes conflicting information into clear, evidence-based insight. You will help identify emerging developments, develop plausible scenarios, monitor critical assumptions and create concise material for management discussions. You will own the intelligence process and analytical preparation, working closely with the Vice President Group Risk Management & Insurance and colleagues across the Group.

• Strong ability to structure ambiguous questions, synthesize large amounts of information and translate analysis into business implications.
• Experience with scenario planning, strategic analysis, management reporting or comparable forward-looking analytical work.

Who you are
You are intellectually curious and motivated by understanding how the operating environment is changing. You enjoy connecting developments across technology, markets, competition, geopolitics and business strategy. You are comfortable with ambiguity but disciplined about evidence. You can develop a hypothesis without becoming attached to it and revise your view when the evidence changes.
You combine strategic thinking with practical execution. You do not stop at describing a trend. You ask why it matters, which assumptions may be affected, what evidence supports the conclusion, what would indicate that conditions are changing and how the insight could influence a management decision.

We encourage you to apply even if you don't meet every single requirement. We value diverse experiences and perspectives and are excited to see what you bring to the role.
