Planner; Primavera P6

Over 10 years we help companies reach their financial and branding goals. Engitech is a values-driven technology agency dedicated.

We are seeking a Planner with Primavera P6 experience to support the delivery of design and as-built works across a range of major infrastructure projects in the UK and internationally. You will work closely with Engineers, Designers, Construction Teams and Information and BIM Managers to produce a programme and manage CPI/SPI for our monthly reporting.

This role is ideal for someone who is maybe in an assistant role looking to move into being ultimately responsible for managing the P6 Programme. Whilst meeting all of the criteria would be amazing, it is understood that some areas may need to be learned.

Frequent interaction with multiple team members, both internal and external is expected. We don’t expect you to sit and wait for answers, you will be integral to finding solutions. You will work closely with our Senior Quantity Surveyor and Senior Project Manager to manage risk, forecast and cost.

Location: Birmingham, England
