Department Overview:

The Electric Risk Management (ERM) team plays a pivotal role in the evaluation, regulatory reporting, and investment planning process for PG&Es key and most consequential risks. The ERM team executes PG&E’s risk decision framework that is used to support a data driven process to inform risk-based decisions with a focus on continuous improvement.

ERM supports the risk management of wildfire, transmission, distribution, and substation risks. The team works closely PG&E’s electric operations and asset strategy teams to identify and evaluate existing and emerging risks, support prioritization and quantification of risk mitigation strategies, monitor key performance and risk indicators, and aids the investment planning process and regulatory proceedings such as the WMP, RAMP, and GRC filings.

This position will lead the risk quantification efforts for all ERM enterprise risks. This includes working with risk owners to ensure that risks are accounted for in our risk models, and that the benefits of our control and mitigation programs are accurately represented. This role requires the ability to tell the story quantitatively where risk exists and how PG&E is managing it.

This position is a technical role where the successful candidate will need to navigate and synthesize varying sets of data. In addition, the successful candidate will have the ability to effectively communicate how the quantitative risk models work and explain the results to risk owners and the leadership team. The prospective candidate is organized, can grasp concepts quickly, and adapt to new information. Time management and ability to meet deadlines is imperative to success in this role.

This position is hybrid, working from your remote office and your assigned work location based on business needs, and the selected candidate must live within PG&E’s service territory.

PG&E is providing the salary range that the company in good faith believes it might pay for this position at the time of the job posting. This compensation range is specific to the locality of the job. The actual salary paid to an individual will be based on multiple factors, including, but not limited to, specific skills, education, licenses or certifications, experience, market value, geographic location, and internal equity. Although we estimate the successful candidate hired into this role will be placed towards the middle or entry point of the range, the decision will be made on a case-by-case basis related to these factors.​

A reasonable salary range is:

Minimum Base Salary (Bay Area) $122,000.00

Mid Base Salary (Bay Area) $158,000.00

Maximum Base Salary (Bay Area) $194,000.00
