We are seeking a Project Scheduler / Planner to support large-scale capital projects within the energy infrastructure sector. This is a high-impact role responsible for owning and developing the integrated master schedule for projects ranging from $50M to $1B+ total installed cost.

- Collaborate with engineering, procurement, and construction teams to align execution plans
- Identify risks, issues, and opportunities for schedule optimization
Qualifications
- 10+ years of experience in:
- Oil & gas, pipeline, or heavy industrial construction projects
- Advanced proficiency in Primavera P6 (required)
- Strong understanding of:
- Construction project lifecycle
- Critical path method (CPM)
- Earned Value Management (EVM)
- Experience building schedules from the ground up (not just maintaining)

- Experience working on large capital projects ($100M+)
- Background with owner/operator or EPC organizations
