** Job Description
** Our Global Workplace and Enterprise Services (GWES) team delivers a safe, reliable, and compliant environment that supports research and production while protecting colleagues, communities, and the environment.
The GWES Maintenance Planner is responsible for preparing maintenance work, so it is safe, compliant, fully scoped, and ready for efficient execution. This role develops complete job plans for preventive, predictive, calibration, and approved corrective maintenance across assigned facilities and utility systems, including the definition of labor, materials, tools, permits, sequencing, and documented work instructions needed to support high-quality execution.
The Planner supports one or more maintenance shops and collaborates closely with Operations, Maintenance Supervisors, craft personnel, Engineering, Supply Chain, and the Scheduler to ensure planned work is technically accurate, risk-informed, and ready in advance of the schedule. The role is accountable for field verification, job package quality, materials readiness, CMMS data quality, and continuous improvement of standard job plans and PM task content to improve schedule compliance, labor productivity, and equipment reliability.
Consistent with maintenance planning and scheduling best practices, this position is focused on proactive work preparation rather than day-of-execution supervision or routine break-in maintenance. The Planner reports to the Associate Director, Engineering and works in close partnership with GWES Supervisors, Schedulers, and craft teams to maintain a healthy backlog of planned, work-ready jobs that support safe operations, regulatory compliance, and reliable asset performance.
In times of business need, the Planner may also be asked to perform limited scheduling duties or provide scheduling support to maintain continuity of maintenance work management and ensure critical work is appropriately prioritized, coordinated, and executed.
** Primary Activities
** The primary activities include and are not limited to the following:
* Develop complete, work-ready job plans for preventive, predictive, and approved corrective maintenance by defining scope, sequence of work, labor hours, craft requirements, permits, tools, parts, services, and safety precautions needed for safe and efficient execution.
* Perform field walkdowns and collaborate with craft, operations, engineering, and contract resources to verify job scope, identify hazards and access needs, and build accurate task lists, bills of materials, and execution steps that minimize delays and rework.
* Maintain job plans, PM task lists, BOMs, equipment history, and other CMMS master data so maintenance work can be planned from standard, current, and reusable information that supports reliability and compliance.
* Coordinate materials readiness by reviewing inventory, initiating part orders and MRO stocking requests, validating min/max levels as needed, escalating obsolescence issues, and ensuring required parts, kits, and special tools are available and staged before scheduled execution.
* Prepare PM and other planned work sufficiently in advance of the schedule to support weekly scheduling, shutdown readiness, and efficient use of labor and equipment windows, while excluding daily break-in work except as needed for planning support or technical clarification.
* Evaluate completed work feedback and maintenance history to improve future job plans, standardize repeatable work, strengthen PM content, and support continuous improvement in equipment reliability, wrench time, and schedule compliance.
* Work closely with the Scheduler, Maintenance Supervisors, Operations, and other stakeholders to align planned work with priorities, resource constraints, equipment availability, and compliance requirements, while maintaining the planner’s primary focus on work preparation rather than day-of-execution supervision.
