They have a strong track record of delivering large-scale projects across mainland Europe, the UK and Ireland, and are a multiple-year award winner for the way the business is run.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Create the master baseline schedule in Primavera P6 or Microsoft Project in line with company procedures, industry best practice and client specifications
• Build project delivery schedules using the schedule hierarchy and communicate these to the project team
• Create separate and integrated templates and model programmes across pre-construction, construction and commissioning
• Produce detailed schedules covering design, procurement, installation and close-out
• Incorporate trade contractor schedules into the company schedule hierarchy
• Communicate scheduling and project controls matters to the project team, the client, the design team and trade contractors
• Manage progress reporting and integrate progress information into company progress reports
• Create and monitor KPIs, and produce weekly and monthly dashboards and reports
• Engage in the change management process and assess the impact of change on the programme
• Create and manage the commissioning programme, including commissioning KPIs and reporting regime
• Prepare time impact analyses to support extension of time claims
• Evaluate extension of time claims submitted by trade contractors
• Mentor and provide training to junior staff

ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS

• Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering or a related discipline
• Proven experience working as an M&E / MEP Planner

EXPERIENCE

You will come from an M&E / MEP building services contracting background, planning the mechanical and electrical scope on large-scale commercial or industrial projects. Experience across sectors such as data centres, pharmaceutical, industrial, logistics, healthcare or commercial is directly relevant. The key requirement is that you have planned building services delivery - design, procurement, installation, commissioning and close-out - rather than planning at a general main-contractor or civils level only.

• A permanent, full-time position with a long-established, financially stable contractor
• Involvement in large-scale projects across mainland Europe, the UK and Ireland
• Exposure to a genuinely broad sector mix - data centres, pharmaceutical, industrial, healthcare, energy and more
• The chance to establish and shape planning controls and reporting standards across multiple projects
• Responsibility for the full project lifecycle, from pre-construction through to commissioning

• An award-winning, well-run business with a highly skilled and long-established workforce
