Senior Workface Planner

Play an integral role in transforming project plans into executable field activities that drive predictable construction performance, workforce productivity, and successful project delivery. As a Senior Workface Planner, you will operate at the intersection of engineering, procurement, construction, and project controls, ensuring work is properly planned, organized, and ready for execution before it reaches the field.

This is a highly visible project leadership role where your ability to organize work packages, align stakeholders, remove execution barriers, and improve field readiness directly impacts safety, schedule performance, labor productivity, and project costs. Your leadership will help maximize workforce efficiency while supporting Worley’s commitment to operational excellence and successful project delivery.

The Senior Workface Planner is responsible for providing planning, coordination, and project execution support to ensure construction work is performed safely, efficiently, and in accordance with project schedules, budgets, and contractual requirements. You will develop and manage workface planning strategies that support construction execution while ensuring labor resources, materials, equipment, engineering deliverables, and work packages are aligned and available when required.

Working closely with Construction Managers, Project Managers, Superintendents, Engineering, Procurement, Project Controls, and field execution teams, you will establish work packaging processes, coordinate construction readiness activities, and support execution strategies that enable productive and predictable field operations.

This role serves as a key contributor to project success by ensuring field crews receive complete, executable work packages that minimize delays, improve productivity, and support safe and effective project execution.
