The team is a good mix of younger and more experienced colleagues involved in interesting, challenging and varied projects in Green Energy transition, including greener fuels such as hydrogen, methanol and ammonia.

YOUR KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Perform, lead and coordinate work for quantitative risk assessments (QRA) and fire- and explosions risk assessments (FERA) using QRA software (PHAST/SAFETI)
• Develop guidelines, tools and templates within the area of quantitative risk assessments (QRA) and fire- and explosions risk assessments (FERA)
• Build-up capabilities and guidelines, tools and templates for dispersion modelling and fire/explosion modelling using commercial CFD-software (FLACS/InFlux) in context of quantitative risk assessments (QRA) and fire- and explosions risk assessments (FERA)
• Prepare safety documentation during engineering of projects (process safety and technical safety)
• Participate in safety workshops on projects (including HAZID, HAZOP and LOPA workshops)
• Evaluate risk and risk reducing measures according to the ALARP principle on projects

From the moment you start at Ramboll, we will support your personal and professional development so that you can continue to grow with the company. Whilst we look forward to supporting your continued learning and development, for this role we have identified some qualifications, skills, and capabilities that will set you up for success.

• A good understanding of mathematical modelling of physical phenomena (e.g. fire and explosion scenarios) and frequency modelling (e.g. event-tree analysis)
• Experience with performing, leading and coordinating work for quantitative risk assessments (QRA) and fire- and explosions risk assessments (FERA)
• Experience with relevant QRA software (e.g. DNV PHAST/SAFETI, Shell FRED, or Gexcon Effects/Risk Curves)
• Experience with dispersion modelling and fire/explosion modelling using commercial CFD-software (e.g. Gexcon FLACS and Insight Numerics InFlux)
• Experience with safety documentation during engineering of projects (e.g. safety philosophies, HAZID and HAZOP)
• Knowledge of legislation framework for major accident hazards (e.g. Seveso-directive and COMAH-directive)
• Experience in context of dialogue with Authorities (e.g. HSE in UK, DSB in Norway and equivalent
