That's why we need people like you. People who appreciate their role in helping others to be successful.

We have an opportunity for a Planner to join our team, supporting the delivery of the SMART Metering Programme for our client, Scottish Water.

Planning plays an important part in making sure work gets delivered successfully. You'll help organise jobs from the outset, making sure requirements are understood, work instructions are clear and our operational teams have what they need to get the job done. Working closely with colleagues and customers, you'll help keep work on track, resolve issues and make sure progress is communicated throughout.

• Planning and scheduling work for operational teams using a range of systems, ensuring activities are organised effectively.

You're organised, have good attention to detail and enjoy working in a busy environment where priorities can change. You're a confident communicator who enjoys dealing with different people, solving problems and making sure things get done.

You'll be comfortable using IT systems, managing competing priorities and keeping information accurate and up to date. Previous planning experience would be useful, but we're also interested in people with transferable skills who are keen to learn and develop in the role.
