• Integrate submittal/procurement timelines and key vendor lead times into the schedule
• Analyze critical path / near-critical, float trends, variances, and risks to milestones
• Support two-week lookaheads, recovery schedules, and sequencing plans with project teams
• Assist with proposal and bid schedules during pursuits

What we’re looking for:

• 5+ years of construction scheduling experience (GC preferred)
• Strong proficiency in Primavera P6 and advanced Excel skills
• Ability to read construction drawings and build realistic logic and phasing
• Clear communication, strong organization, and deadline discipline
