Position Summary:

The Scheduler is responsible for the development, maintenance, and monitoring of project schedules across steel fabrication and construction projects. This role ensures project programs are realistic, achievable, and aligned with overall project objectives. The Scheduler works closely with Estimators, Engineers, Project Managers, and Site Supervisors to coordinate resources and identify potential delays early.

The Scheduler uses software tools such as Microsoft Project or Primavera P6 to create and manage detailed project programs, analyse progress, report on performance metrics, and support claims processes, including Extensions of Time (EOTs).

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop baseline construction and fabrication schedules in Microsoft Project or Primavera.
• Track and update project programs in accordance with real-time progress reports.
• Monitor critical paths, float, and task dependencies to identify risks and delays.
• Assist in tender program development and resource planning.
• Coordinate with engineers, project managers, and workshop/site supervisors to validate logic and durations.
• Prepare look-ahead schedules and scenario analyses to support proactive planning.
• Flag delays or resource clashes and recommend mitigation strategies.
• Develop and compile EOT claims and supporting documentation, including impact assessments, program comparisons, and narrative justifications.
• Maintain and distribute weekly progress reports with schedule status, KPIs, and narrative summaries.

Client Relations:

• Provide project schedule updates for client meetings as required.
• Ensure client requirements and milestones are accurately reflected in the program.
• Assist in justifying delays and substantiating EOT claims with credible, traceable data.

Communications:

• Liaise regularly with internal teams to gather data and confirm progress.
• Communicate changes to program or forecast impacts to stakeholders promptly.
• Support project handover meetings and briefings with up-to-date program outputs.
• Clearly document and support time-related claims with factual and consistent reporting.

Safety and Quality:

• Ensure scheduling accounts for safe sequencing of tasks and compliance with company HSQE standards.
• Collaborate with site teams to align programs with ITPs, quality checkpoints, and hold points.
• Highlight schedule risks related to safety-critical works or environmental constraints.

Essential Criteria:

• 3-5 years experience in a scheduling or planning role within construction or heavy industry.
• Experience scheduling steel fabrication, structural works, or multi-discipline construction projects.
• Demonstrated capability in preparing and supporting Extension of Time (EOT) claims, including analysis and documentation.
• Familiarity with EPCM/contractor programming environments and workflows.
• Strong interpersonal and written communication skills.
• Ability to clearly convey schedule impacts and claim justifications to internal and external stakeholders.
• Advanced planning and scheduling competency.
• Strong understanding of construction sequencing, logistics, and resource constraints.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Project and/or Primavera P6.
• Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint).
• Experience with reporting tools such as Power BI, Dashpivot, or similar (preferred).
• Able to assess scheduling conflicts, identify delays, and compile logical, evidence-based EOT narratives.
• Proactive in improving planning accuracy, visibility, and project controls.
