Project Planner

• →Build and own bid-stage schedules — develop fully scoped, resource- and cost-loaded schedules aligned to the Bill of Materials (BOM) / Statement of Work (SOW), with no scope gaps and full compliance with DCMA (Defense Contract Management Agency) 14-point health criteria.
• →Drive probabilistic analysis — apply three-point estimating and quantitative risk analysis (including Monte Carlo / QRA methods) to produce a defensible, risk-adjusted cost and schedule position that informs bid/no-bid and pricing decisions.
• →Maintain bi-directional traceability — link schedule activities to RAID (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, Dependencies) risk references and maintain estimated time impacts throughout the bid phase, ensuring no data is lost at handover.
• →Lead the ITO-to-execution transition — validate the bid schedule against final contracted scope, support formal baseline approval, and hand over the baselined schedule and associated RAID data to the Project Controller with a clear, structured briefing.
• →Support change control during execution — re-engage when material schedule variance arises to construct What-If scenarios, quantify critical path impact, float consumption, and Extension of Time (EoT) entitlement without modifying the approved baseline.

You are someone who combines analytical rigour with strong communication skills — equally comfortable interrogating a schedule logic network and presenting risk findings to bid leadership.

• Significant experience building and maintaining complex, resource-loaded project schedules using enterprise tools such as Planisware, Primavera P6 (P6), or equivalent.
• Strong working knowledge of Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) / Cost Breakdown Structure (CBS) development and alignment between planning tools and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) / financial systems such as SAP.
• Practical experience with schedule health diagnostics, including DCMA 14-point analysis.
• Solid understanding of probabilistic risk techniques — three-point estimating, Expected Monetary Value (EMV), and Monte Carlo / Quantitative Risk Analysis (QRA) methods — and their application to contingency and margin decisions.
• Understanding of Earned Value Management (EVM) principles and how schedule integrity underpins performance measurement baseline (PMB) accuracy.
• Demonstrated ability to engage effectively across Commercial, Risk, Cost Engineering, and project leadership teams.
• Must hold, or be eligible to obtain, SC Clearance

• Experience working in a bid or ITO (Invitation to Offer) environment within complex systems or capital projects delivery.
• Familiarity with change management processes, including What-If scenario modelling and the distinction between rebaselining and re-time-phasing.
