About the role

For the region of Charleroi, we are looking for a Lean Project planner who has a good knowledge of both English and French.

As a Lean Project Planner, you play a key role in our construction projects. You are the strategic driving force who ensures that project schedules are embraced by the project team, closely monitored, and adjusted whenever necessary.

As a Lean Project Planner, you work closely with the project team to ensure that every construction project is planned logically and efficiently from A to Z, from foundation to finishing.

• You translate complex construction plans into realistic and detailed project schedules using MS Project.
• You implement Lean principles on site and facilitate various Lean planning sessions with subcontractors to optimize workflow and eliminate bottlenecks.

• You work in close partnership with the Site Managers to ensure that the project schedule is embraced and followed on a daily basis by all stakeholders on site.
• You play an active role in coordination meetings, capturing decisions as they are made and immediately translating them into updated schedules and coordinated actions for all parties involved.
• You monitor project progress, identify deviations at an early stage, and proactively propose scenarios to keep the project on track and meet deadlines.
• You report on project progress and resource planning (equipment and workforce) to the project team and management.

What do you need?

• You hold a Bachelor's or Master's degree in a technical field (e.g. Civil Engineering, Construction Engineering, or a related discipline). We welcome both ambitious graduates and experienced professionals.
• You have a good command of English and French.
• You are accurate, resilient under pressure, and have a structured, planning-oriented mindset.
• You have excellent knowledge of MS Project. Experience with Primavera is an advantage.
• You combine strong analytical skills with the ability to facilitate workshops and communicate complex information visually to stakeholders at all levels.
• You are confident in challenging others and take the lead during coordination meetings to build consensus within the project team.
• You believe in the value of Lean Management and enjoy working in an efficient, continuous improvement environment.
• You are analytical, an excellent communicator, and encourage others to critically assess and improve their planning.
