Utility construction experience—especially transmission, distribution, substations, and power delivery—is highly desirable! We also welcome experienced construction planners from other major infrastructure and EPC environments.

We're looking for someone who does more than update schedules. You'll be a key partner to project managers and field teams, turning construction plans into executable schedules, anticipating challenges, optimizing resources, and keeping projects moving.

• Build, manage, and optimize Primavera P6 CPM schedules from project kickoff through construction completion.

• Develop project baselines, construction sequencing, schedule logic, milestones, and execution plans.

• Coordinate engineering, procurement, construction, testing, and commissioning activities.

• Create resource-loaded and cost-loaded schedules, manpower forecasts, and look-ahead schedules.

• Analyze critical path, total float, schedule delays, constraints, and project risks.

• Track progress, forecast completion dates, and develop recovery and mitigation plans.

• Partner with Project Managers, Superintendents, and field teams to align schedules with real-world construction activities.

• Lead schedule reviews and provide actionable insights to project leadership.

• Support earned value management (EVM), schedule performance reporting, and proposal scheduling.

What You'll Bring

• 5+ years of hands-on construction scheduling and planning experience; 8+ years preferred.

• Advanced Primavera P6 experience REQUIRED, including independently building and managing complex construction schedules.

• Experience in EPC, civil construction, renewable energy, industrial, commercial, utility, or infrastructure projects.

• Utility T&D, substation, or power delivery construction experience HIGHLY DESIRABLE.

• Strong expertise in Critical Path Method (CPM), schedule logic, baseline development, forecasting, and recovery planning.

• Experience with construction sequencing, resource planning, and coordination with field operations.

• Experience developing resource- and/or cost-loaded P6 schedules.

• Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate with engineering, procurement, and construction teams.

• EVM experience preferred; TILOS, Linear Scheduling Method (LSM), or Deltek Acumen a plus.

• High school diploma required; bachelor's degree preferred.

What You'll Get

• Competitive base salary

• Generous PTO & paid holidays to maintain work-life balance

• 401(k) with a generous match to plan for your future
