Construction Planner / Scheduler
Construction Planner / Scheduler
We are seeking an experienced Construction Planner / Scheduler to support the successful planning and delivery of complex construction projects. This is an opportunity to join a collaborative project team where you will play a key role in developing robust programmes, monitoring progress and supporting informed decision-making throughout the project lifecycle.
Working closely with project managers, site teams, subcontractors, consultants and commercial colleagues, you will ensure that programme information is accurate, current and clearly communicated. You will contribute to both pre-construction planning and live project controls, helping to identify risks, manage dependencies and maintain delivery against agreed milestones.
Key responsibilities
- Develop, maintain and update detailed construction programmes using recognised planning software.
- Work with project teams to establish realistic activity durations, sequencing, logic links and resource requirements.
- Monitor progress against baseline programmes and prepare regular updates, look-ahead schedules and progress reports.
- Identify delays, critical path impacts, programme risks and opportunities for mitigation.
- Support recovery planning and the preparation of revised programmes where required.
- Coordinate programme information from internal teams, subcontractors and suppliers.
- Attend progress meetings and communicate schedule performance to key stakeholders.
- Assist with reporting on earned value, productivity, milestones and forecast completion dates.
- Maintain clear records of programme changes, assumptions, constraints and agreed actions.
About you
You will have proven experience in a construction planning or scheduling role, ideally gained on medium to large-scale building, civil engineering, infrastructure or refurbishment projects. You should be confident interpreting drawings, specifications and construction methodologies, with a strong understanding of sequencing, project controls and critical path analysis.
Experience using Primavera P6, Asta Powerproject or similar planning software is essential. Strong analytical, organisational and communication skills are required, together with the ability to challenge information constructively and work effectively under pressure. A relevant qualification in construction, engineering, project management or a related discipline would be advantageous.
