- Build scenario-based plans and contingency options to deal with possible disruptions.
- Align scheduling activities with cost control, risk management, and other project systems.
Qualifications and experience
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or a related discipline.
- Strong understanding of project management approaches and scheduling methods.
- Hands-on experience with Primavera P6, MS Project, or similar planning software.
- At least 6 years of total professional experience, including 5 years or more in the construction sector.

- Strong analytical, organisational, and communication abilities.
- Proven leadership capability, including the ability to guide and support junior team members.
