We are looking for an experienced Construction Planning Engineer to join our team. The successful candidate will be responsible for developing and maintaining project schedules, monitoring construction progress, identifying delays, and coordinating with project and site teams to ensure projects are completed on time.
Key Responsibilities
Develop, maintain, and update detailed construction schedules using Primavera P6.
Prepare baseline programs, master schedules, look-ahead schedules, and recovery programs.
Develop Work Breakdown Structures (WBS), milestones, and project activities.
Monitor actual site progress against approved schedules.
Identify delays, critical activities, schedule risks, and potential project slippage.
Analyze critical paths, float, and planned vs. actual progress.
Prepare daily, weekly, and monthly progress reports.

Coordinate with Project Managers, Site Engineers, QS, subcontractors, consultants, and suppliers.
Monitor subcontractor schedules and ensure activities are aligned with the main project program.

Prepare recovery plans and recommend corrective actions for delayed activities.
Assist with delay analysis, EOT claims, and schedule-related documentation when required.
Attend progress meetings and provide accurate planning and scheduling updates.
