  • Load labor, equipment, material, and cost data into project schedules to support forecasting and performance tracking.
  • Update project schedules with actual progress, identify schedule variances, and recommend corrective actions.
  • Perform schedule impact assessments and what-if analyses to evaluate project risks and recovery options.
  • Establish and maintain baseline schedules while documenting changes resulting from scope modifications or contract revisions.
  • Generate reports, S-curves, resource histograms, earned value data, and schedule performance metrics for project leadership and clients.
  • Collaborate with project managers, engineers, construction teams, and clients to ensure schedules accurately reflect project status.
  • Participate in project planning meetings and provide scheduling expertise throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Maintain accurate project documentation and ensure scheduling practices comply with company and client requirements.

  • Minimum of three years of hands-on experience using Primavera P6 in engineering, construction, industrial, or infrastructure projects.
  • Strong knowledge of Critical Path Method (CPM) scheduling principles and project controls.

  • Ability to analyze schedule performance, identify delays, and recommend practical solutions.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite, including Excel, Word, and Outlook.
  • Strong organizational, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to present schedule information to project teams and stakeholders.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities while meeting project deadlines.
  • Ability to work independently while contributing effectively within a collaborative project team.
Preferred Qualifications

  • Familiarity with Earned Value Management (EVM) principles and project controls.
  • Experience with schedule risk analysis and resource forecasting.
  • Knowledge of contract scheduling requirements and change management processes.
  • Experience working in multi-disciplinary engineering or construction environments.
