Program Scheduler

About the Role
Do you thrive in fast-paced construction environments where planning, sequencing, and execution must align flawlessly? We're looking for a highly strategic and execution-focused Program Scheduler who can transform high-level milestones into actionable field-driven schedules that keep complex projects moving forward.

In this role, you'll own the integrated master schedule across multiple sites, trades, and phases of work-serving as the critical bridge between planning and field execution. You'll work closely with construction leadership, technical teams, subcontractors, procurement, and project controls to ensure schedules reflect real-world construction sequencing, resource constraints, and operational priorities.

From critical path management and release planning to look-aheads and recovery strategies, you'll play a central role in driving accountability, maintaining schedule integrity, and supporting successful project delivery across mission-critical infrastructure programs.

What You'll Do - Plan with Precision. Execute with Confidence.

• Develop, maintain, and manage comprehensive master schedules across multiple sites, disciplines, and project phases.
• Convert high-level project milestones into detailed sequencing logic, release plans, bullseye targets, and field-usable look-ahead schedules.
• Partner with field leadership, technical teams, subcontractors, and procurement to validate schedule logic, durations, resource assumptions, and installation sequencing.
• Identify schedule risks, float erosion, milestone threats, and execution gaps while developing proactive recovery strategies and mitigation plans.
• Track room and area readiness, release-to-work milestones, test-ready gates, startup activities, and turnover sequencing to maintain execution continuity.
• Create and maintain near-term look-aheads and short-interval schedules that support daily and weekly field execution goals.
• Lead schedule coordination meetings and drive accountability across stakeholders to ensure alignment between planning intent and field realities.
• Identify unrealistic durations, incomplete scope assumptions, sequencing conflicts, and execution gaps before they impact the field.
• Ensure schedules reflect actual field progress, changing site conditions, constraints, procurement impacts, and execution updates.
• Provide leadership with clear reporting, schedule analytics, scenario planning, and recovery recommendations to support informed decision-making.

Project Environments You'll Support

• Data centers, high-availability facilities, and complex infrastructure programs with aggressive schedules and phased turnover requirements
• Large-scale deployments requiring integrated coordination across multiple active sites and teams
• Electrical, mechanical, low-voltage, commissioning, procurement, and integrated construction sequencing efforts
• Readiness tracking, commissioning support, phased handovers, and operational transition planning

What You Bring

• 7-12+ years of experience in construction scheduling, project controls, or integrated program scheduling
• Proven experience as a Lead Scheduler, Master Scheduler, or Program Scheduler on large-scale construction projects
• Strong command of CPM scheduling methodologies and schedule-driven construction execution
• Advanced proficiency with scheduling platforms such as Primavera P6, MS Project, or equivalent tools
• Deep understanding of construction sequencing, trade coordination, and field execution workflows
• Experience translating complex schedules into actionable field execution plans
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to identify risks and recovery opportunities
• Ability to challenge assumptions and maintain schedule discipline across stakeholders
• Experience supporting mission-critical, data center, or complex infrastructure programs strongly preferred
• Familiarity with procurement sequencing, commissioning, startup, and turnover processes
• Strong communication and collaboration skills across construction, engineering, procurement, and subcontractor teams
• Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field preferred, or equivalent industry experience
