  • Support Earned Value Management (EVM), cost tracking, and performance measurement
  • Analyze productivity trends, quantities, and labor data to improve forecasting accuracy
  • Perform schedule risk analysis and develop mitigation and recovery strategies
  • Conduct site visits and walk-downs to validate progress and percent complete
  • Integrate procurement, permitting, outage planning, and subcontractor schedules into master schedules
  • Generate look-ahead schedules and support near-term work planning
  • Develop and maintain Power BI dashboards and executive reporting tools
  • Collaborate with field teams, utilities, and stakeholders to optimize sequencing and execution
  • Support preconstruction scheduling, bid schedules, and contract time determinations (CTDs)
  • Maintain portfolio-level roll-up schedules and reporting across multiple projects
  • Develop and maintain manpower forecasting for craft, supervision, management, safety, and quality personnel
  • Develop and maintain integrated fabrication shop schedules to monitor manpower capacity and workload forecasting
  • Work closely with Finance supporting monthly cost-to-complete projections based on EVM, cost tracking, and performance measurement
  • Mentor and train Project Managers and Superintendents on Earned Value Management and the integration of cost, schedule, and scope


Required Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience in project controls, scheduling, or construction planning
  • Advanced proficiency in Primavera Oracle Cloud
  • Experience with Earned Value Management (EVM), cost controls, and forecasting
  • Strong understanding of Critical Path Method (CPM) and construction sequencing
  • Experience supporting large-scale EPC, infrastructure, or industrial projects
  • Ability to manage multiple concurrent projects and stakeholders
  • Strong analytical and reporting skills (Excel required; Power BI preferred)
  • Willingness to travel nationally up to 50%


Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in power, utilities, data centers, transportation, or telecom infrastructure
  • Experience with EcoSys, Microsoft Project, or similar project controls tools
  • Familiarity with GIS data, permitting workflows, and outage coordination
  • Experience working in both field and corporate project controls environments
  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Finance, or related field


Why JGM

  • High-impact role supporting complex, large-scale industrial and infrastructure projects
  • Opportunity to help build and scale a formal Project Controls function
  • Exposure to field operations, executive leadership, and national projects
  • Long-term career growth with a fast-growing industrial contractor
