Job description

You’ve Never Been Satisfied with "Good Enough."

You want to make an impact, not just manage projects, but change how the world gets built. At Accenture Infrastructure & Capital Projects, you’ll do exactly that. You’ll help develop and deliver the factories, grids, transit systems, and public infrastructure that keep communities moving - and do it smarter, safer, and more sustainably than ever before.

You’ll work alongside people who think big and act bold - project managers, engineers, technologists, and strategists who blend real-world experience with digital innovation and AI. Together, we’re transforming how capital projects are planned, managed, and executed, creating a better way to build for the future.

Because “good enough” builds the past. You’re here to build what’s next, on a team that outperforms every norm.

THE WORK:

• You'll develop and implement the project planning and scheduling controls strategy, including roles for both BP and contractors.
• You'll adhere to financial, business, and project processes across all project stages.
• You'll provide schedules to support accurate estimating, benchmarking, and interface planning.
• You'll coordinate internal and external schedule benchmarks and ensure readiness for future phases.
• You'll prepare and manage the WBS/CBS in collaboration with the Cost Engineer.
• You'll implement and monitor detailed and summary schedules throughout the project lifecycle.
• You'll develop and integrate schedule risk analysis and mitigation plans into the risk and change processes.
• You'll establish a project-wide progress measurement and reporting system with clear roll-up structures.
• You'll generate and present schedule reports and project updates to relevant stakeholders.
• You'll support project closeout planning and perform other duties as assigned.
• With all our roles, there is some in-person time for collaboration, learning and building relationships with clients, peers, leaders and communities. As an employer, we will be as flexible as possible to support your specific work/life needs.

HERE’S WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

• A minimum of 9 years of relevant experience in project controls and time/schedule management

BONUS POINTS IF YOU HAVE:

• Proficient and expert experience level using project scheduling tools (MS Project, Primavera P6, Acumen Suite)
• Ability to coordinate & organize multiple sources of schedule inputs/performance data into a master schedule platform and deliver project/program status reports as required
• Organized and detail-oriented

Compensation range: $130,000 - $160,000 a year. Compensation at Accenture varies depending on a wide array of factors, which may include but are not limited to the specific office location, role, skill set, and level of experience.
