The individual is responsible for managing project scope, cost, and schedule while actively developing, analyzing, and maintaining project schedules and supporting cost controls processes.

The role operates at the intersection of project execution and project controls, ensuring projects are planned, monitored, and delivered with a high degree of accuracy and predictability.

  • Support contract administration, including review of change orders, RFIs, and submittals.
  • Identify project risks and develop mitigation and recovery strategies.

  • Develop, maintain, and analyze detailed project schedules using Primavera P6.
  • Establish baseline schedules and track progress against key milestones and critical path.
  • Perform schedule analysis, including variance tracking, delay identification, and recovery planning.
  • Conduct what-if scenarios and time impact analyses to support decision-making.
  • Review and validate contractor schedules, including cost- and resource-loaded schedules.
  •  

  • Support cost tracking, forecasting, and budget management activities.
  • Analyze cost and schedule performance to identify trends, risks, and variances.
  • Assist in the development of cost reports, forecasts, and performance metrics.
  • Integrate schedule progress with cost data to support overall project controls reporting.
  • Contribute to earned value analysis and performance measurement where applicable.
  •  

  • Develop clear and concise project reports, including schedule updates, cost summaries, and performance insights.
  • Communicate project status, risks, and recommendations to internal and external stakeholders.
  • Support client-facing deliverables with a strong focus on accuracy and clarity.
  •  

  • Work closely with project controls teams, engineers, and field staff to validate project data.
  • Identify opportunities to improve scheduling and project controls processes.
  • Mentor junior staff in scheduling fundamentals and project controls practices.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in project management, project controls, or scheduling within construction or engineering environments.
  • Strong hands-on experience with Primavera P6, including schedule development and analysis.
  • Demonstrated understanding of:
  • Critical Path Method (CPM) scheduling
  • Cost tracking and forecasting fundamentals
  • Cost and schedule integration
  • Experience reviewing contractor schedules and project documentation.
