  • Perform schedule updates, prepare schedule narratives, variance analyses, and look-ahead reports for internal and client reporting
  • Assess schedule impacts resulting from scope changes, delays, and project risks, including Time Impact Analyses (TIAs) where required
  • Support earned value management by maintaining schedule data and collaborating with Project Controllers on project performance reporting
  • Coordinate with Project Managers, Estimators, Project Controllers, and divisional leadership to support project planning and resource forecasting
  • Contribute to the development and continuous improvement of scheduling standards, templates, and project controls processes
  • Participate in project handovers, schedule reviews, and PMO planning sessions
  • Mentor Project Controllers and support scheduling best practices across the organization
What We're Looking For
  • 5+ years of hands-on scheduling experience supporting capital, EPC, or complex infrastructure projects
  • Advanced proficiency with Primavera P6 or Microsoft Project, including resource loading, baseline management, and critical path analysis
  • Strong understanding of CPM scheduling principles, WBS development, float management, and schedule change analysis
  • Experience developing resource-loaded schedules and supporting organizational resource planning across multiple projects
  • Experience preparing or supporting Time Impact Analyses (TIAs) and schedule delay analysis
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to explain scheduling concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Experience in electrical, substation, transmission, or heavy civil/industrial construction is preferred
  • Familiarity with earned value management (SPI, CPI, PMB) and project cost reporting is considered an asset
  • Post-secondary education in engineering technology, construction management, or a related discipline
  • PSP (Planning & Scheduling Professional), PMP, or experience with InEight Control or similar project management platforms is considered an asset
