• Helping build and update construction programmes.
• Tracking progress and identifying potential delays.
• Working with site teams to keep projects moving.
• Supporting programme reviews and reporting.
• Learning how complex projects are planned from start to finish.

Ideally, you'll have:

• A relevant construction or engineering qualification.
• Some exposure to planning or construction programming.
• Good working knowledge of Asta Powerproject.
• Strong attention to detail and a proactive attitude.
• A genuine interest in developing a career in planning.
