Innovative Project Planner; German-speaker - Remote; Latam

The Role

You’ll be enhancing the delivery of the most complex and interesting projects in the world through the power of project planning to the very highest standards. You’ll devise strategies and tactics to improve the way the project is delivered. You’ll translate this knowledge into a logic‑linked plan and analyse it using planning software. Then you’ll use the plan to help the teams understand what to prioritise.

This role is part of our Project Management Consultancy team which focuses on:

• Understanding what the real problems of projects are
• Implementing the best solutions to those problems
• Developing scalable best practices, tools and technology

More specifically, you’ll be part of our Project Planning Team, who are industry leaders in the planning of complex construction projects. Your initial leader will be one of our planning discipline directors.

• To make construction projects deliver to near perfection
• To create scalable and repeatable solutions to common problems
• To develop yourself and everyone around you

• Own the plan:
  Own the project plan for one or more projects and ensure that the project is working to it effectively. Ensure delays are mitigated and managed commercially.
• Own the outcome:
  You’re responsible for putting in your best effort to ensure the project team’s understanding and focus on the plan – no matter how stubborn they are.
• Report and inform:
  Provide simple, actionable reports to stakeholders at all levels that help them deliver their part of the project more efficiently and effectively.
• Make scalable solutions:
  Develop scalable and repeatable best practices and tools in collaboration with the team so that long‑term impact is achieved.
• Develop everyone:
  Maximise the development of your team personally and professionally and educate our clients to improve as well.

• Construction engineering background:
  You have at least 2+ years of experience on construction projects, experience in project planning both software and principles, as well as decent Excel skills, and a strong interest in data.
• Communication skills:
  You’re fluent in English, with German language skills (native or professionally fluent) considered a strong advantage to effectively coordinate with site teams and stakeholders while driving alignment and delivery.
• Leadership capabilities:
  You lead yourself proactively and lead others by asking the right questions and challenging them.
• Impact:
  You have a track record of making projects and organisations better beyond just doing the basics – implementing scalable, repeatable solutions that had a significant positive impact.

• You want an easy, chilled‑out role without much challenge
• You like to be the smartest person in the room
• You don’t like continuously receiving honest candid feedback
• You prefer to do your own thing rather than work with a team

It’s common for people to be exposed to several projects in their first year with us. You’ll work on some of the most complex and interesting environments in the world. We’ve delivered over 100 data centres internationally, many of them fast‑tracked and multi‑package. Our teams have supported flagship infrastructure programmes like HS2 through integrated planning and digital delivery, contributed to over $30bn in power generation and transmission projects, and played a key role in the development of high‑containment labs and R&D campuses for some of the world’s most advanced industrial and life sciences clients.

You might find yourself working in sectors such as data centres, infrastructure (including defence, rail, and highways), high‑tech (such as advanced manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and semiconductors), or complex building projects. These aren’t hands‑off assignments. They’re dynamic, hands‑on environments designed for people who want to be challenged. We bring back the lessons from every project to help our team grow and deliver the highest levels of value.
