We are seeking an experienced Senior Project Scheduler to support an Owner's Engineer team on an ongoing project. This role is responsible for developing, maintaining, analyzing, and optimizing project schedules across complex engineering, procurement, and construction scopes.

The successful candidate will be more than a scheduling specialist. They will serve as a trusted advisor to the Owner and the project management team, helping drive execution strategy, identifying risks and opportunities, and supporting informed decision‑making throughout the project lifecycle.

In this role, the individual will lead the development, maintenance, analysis, and reporting of integrated cost and resource‑loaded schedules in Primavera P6 and will act as the owner of the Program Master Schedule. The position supports program controls, progress and performance management, contractor oversight, interface coordination, and executive decision‑making across the program.

This position is ideal for an experienced planning professional with a strong understanding of project delivery, construction methodologies, and project controls within the hydropower, power generation, energy, mining, industrial, transmission, renewable energy, or major infrastructure sectors.

• Analyze contractor schedules to ensure alignment with contractual milestones, predict completion dates, and confirm that reported progress is accurately reflected.
• Identify schedule deficiencies such as logic gaps, unrealistic sequencing, excessive durations, and other conditions that compromise reporting and forecast reliability.
• Confirm contractor schedule submittals comply with the project's Owner's Requirements for scheduling, including software settings, coding structure, Work Breakdown Structure, and submittal format.
• Maintain schedule integrity across the design, procurement, construction, and commissioning interfaces between contractors and the Owner.
