Lead Project Planner and Scheduler

• P0 Baseline Creation: Develop the Level 2 (L2) and Level 3 (L3) Integrated Project Schedules using Primavera P6, adhering to global planning standards

• Work closely with Sourcing/Procurement to integrate Supplier Lead Times, manufacturing cycles, and logistics durations. Ensure PO required dates are accurately reflected and synchronized across multi-unit projects.
• Concurrent Engineering Logic: Partner with Engineering functional leads to model Concurrent Engineering workflows. Ensure design releases are sequenced to support procurement and construction handoffs without conflict.
• Commitment Meetings: Lead the Commitment Meeting with functional owners (ENG, Sourcing, PM) to resolve disconnects, align on cycles, and secure buy-in for the project baseline (P0).

• Progress Monitoring: Update the project master schedule monthly based on inputs from task owners. Analyze progress curves, float consumption, and "Say/Do" ratios.
• Critical Path Analysis: Perform deep-dive critical path analysis to identify potential delays. Proactively recommend mitigation strategies to the Project Manager and functional leadership.
• Constraint Management: Manage scheduling constraints (ALAP/ASAP). Lead re-baselining efforts (e.g., migrating from 00 to P0) ensuring minimal disruption to reporting and preserving commitment dates in shadow fields.
• Multi-Unit Coordination: Ensure consistency across multi-unit projects. Manage PO required dates to prevent drift between units, utilizing master activities or controlled constraints where necessary.
• Risk & Opportunity: Maintain the risk register within the schedule. Run "What-If" scenarios to assess the impact of potential risks or opportunities on the critical path.

• Tool Management: Ensure Primavera P6 remains the "Single Source of Truth." Manage integrations with adjacent tools (e.g., Unifier, Pulse, WIPT, Tableau) to ensure data accuracy.
• Stakeholder Reporting: Prepare and present schedule updates to internal leadership, functional teams, and external customers. Adapt communication style for non-planning experts.
• Claims Support: Support Extension of Time (EOT) and cost claims by performing delay analysis (forensic or retrospective) to substantiate delays or disruptions.

• Lessons Learned: Facilitate project close-out reports, documenting lessons learned and feeding improvements back into the Scheduling COE (Center of Excellence).
• Process Harmonization: Identify disconnects between regional teams or functions and drive solutions to standardize global processes.

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, Construction Management, Supply Chain, Business, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• 5+ years of experience in Project Planning & Scheduling within a complex engineering or EPC environment using Primavera P6 Power Generation and Heavy Industrial Equipment preferred.

• Advanced certifications in Project Management (PMP) or Scheduling (PSP – AACE) are highly desirable.
• Courage to challenge functional leaders when durations are unrealistic or commitments are at risk, with confidence and analytics to drive action without direct authority.
• Ability to translate complex schedule data into simple, actionable insights for senior leadership and customers
