Planner

Description:

We're looking for a P6 Planner with a strong construction delivery background in the water sector to own and maintain integrated project programmes across the full lifecycle, from pre-construction through to handover.

Key responsibilities
* Build, update and manage Primavera P6 schedules (baseline, updates, forecasts)
* Set up WBS, logic ties, critical path, calendars, coding, and progress rules
* Lead progress capture with site and project teams, including lookaheads and "what's changed" reviews
* Produce reporting packs: critical path, float, milestones, earned progress, delays, and recovery options
* Support change control, risk/opportunity planning, and scenario modelling
* Coordinate with commercial and project management on impacts to cost, resource and delivery dates
* Maintain programme governance, assumptions, and audit trail

Required experience
* Proven P6 planning experience on construction projects (civils, M&E in water)
* Solid understanding of construction sequencing, constraints, and permits/access
* Strong stakeholder management with PMs, site teams, and subcontractors
* Confident producing clear programme narratives, not just schedules

Nice to have
* NEC contract exposure and/or delay analysis support
* Experience with Power BI, Excel (advanced), or schedule risk tools
* Site experience or time spent in a delivery role
