Senior Planner

Construction Planner | Yorkshire | £55k - £80k + Package

I am working alongside a well-established and highly respected main contractor to appoint a Planner to support projects across Yorkshire.

This is a site-based role with a strong focus on post-construction planning, making it ideal for someone who enjoys working closely with site teams and being actively involved in project delivery.

The company has a strong pipeline of work across the region and is known for delivering high-quality projects across a range of sectors, with a reputation for investing in its people and promoting from within.

This role would suit an experienced Planner, but the client is equally open to less experienced candidates who demonstrate the right attitude, drive and willingness to develop within a supportive team.

The Role

Responsibilities will include:

• Developing and maintaining detailed construction programmes
• Working closely with site teams to monitor progress and update programmes
• Supporting post-construction planning and project close-out activities
• Producing progress reports and programme updates
• Identifying risks, delays and mitigation strategies
• Assisting project teams with look-ahead programmes and sequencing of works
• Liaising with project stakeholders to ensure accurate reporting and delivery against programme
• Supporting continuous improvement in planning processes and project delivery

What You'll Need

• Experience in a construction planning role (main contractor environment preferred)
• Familiarity with planning software such as Asta Powerproject or Primavera
• Strong understanding of construction processes and project sequencing
• Ability to work closely with site teams and project managers
• Excellent communication and problem-solving skills
• A proactive mindset with a strong desire to learn and develop

Why Apply?

• Opportunity to work with a highly regarded regional contractor
• Long-term pipeline of projects across Yorkshire
• Strong career progression and development opportunities
• Supportive team environment with experienced mentors
• Competitive salary and benefits package
