Job Description
The Senior Project Controller is a senior, hands‑on project controls professional responsible for delivering integrated controls across  cost, schedule, progress measurement, change, risk, and information management/document control interfaces  on Major Projects.

The Senior Project Controller operates effectively in complex delivery environments
-including  JVs/partnerships, alliances, P3/DB/PDB  
-and supports multi-party governance by aligning controls definitions, cut‑off calendars, and reporting across partner teams. This role is expected to be a “controls integrator”: ensuring cost, schedule, and information flows stay coherent, auditable, and useful.

Key responsibilities
Integrated project controls delivery (cost, schedule, progress)

Establish and maintain integrated controls routines for assigned projects: baseline management, progress cut-offs, update cycles, forecasting cadence, and performance review rhythms.

Develop and maintain integrated project schedules (e.g.,  Primavera P6 ) with strong logic integrity, critical path clarity, realistic resourcing assumptions, and effective lookahead planning.

Manage cost control processes: commitments, actuals, accruals, cost coding alignment, variance analysis, and periodic forecasting ( EAC/ETC ) with clear assumptions and traceability.

Implement progress measurement rules aligned to contract requirements and project realities; ensure schedule updates and cost forecasts reflect physical progress and approved changes.

Change control and commercial alignment

Execute and maintain the change control process: change capture, log governance, schedule/cost impact assessment, approvals tracking, baseline adjustments (when authorized), and integration into forecasts.

Coordinate with commercial/contract administration to support substantiation, notices, and claims readiness by maintaining defensible records, narratives, and audit trails tied to controls outputs.

Reporting, performance insights, and stakeholder management

Produce monthly/periodic reporting packs (internal leadership, client, and JV/partner requirements as applicable) covering schedule status, cost performance, progress, KPIs, change status, trends, and risk considerations.
