Project Scheduling Manager

Project Scheduling Manager – Major Nuclear Capital Project | USA

If you’ve mastered Primavera P6 and thrive on bringing order to complex, multidisciplinary construction programmes this could be the role for you.

We’re supporting a large-scale, first-of-a-kind nuclear capital project and looking for a Project Scheduling Manager to own the master schedule and lead a team of schedulers driving delivery.

This isn’t routine EPC scheduling. This is high-visibility, high-complexity programme control on a technically demanding nuclear build.

You’ll take full ownership of the integrated project schedule - leading updates, driving best practice, identifying risk early, and ensuring cross-functional alignment across engineering, procurement, construction, and equipment installation.

You’ll also manage and mentor a team of schedulers, setting the standard for schedule integrity and performance reporting across the programme.

• Proactively identify schedule risks and develop mitigation strategies
• Report schedule variances and forecast impacts to project leadership
• Generate forecasts, variance reports, and executive-level schedule documentation
• Drive schedule best practices and enforce process consistency
• Manage, mentor, and develop a team of project schedulers

• Degree in construction, engineering, science, or business-related discipline
• 6+ years’ scheduling experience using Primavera P6
• 3+ years’ experience managing personnel
• Strong analytical, quantitative, and reporting capability
• Ability to coordinate complex, non-routine capital projects
• Confident communicator capable of engaging senior stakeholders
