Project Scheduler

Role Overview

The Project Scheduler is responsible for developing, managing, and maintaining project

schedules to ensure energy infrastructure projects are completed on time, within budget, and in

alignment with project goals. This role plays a critical part in tracking progress, forecasting

delays, optimizing resource allocation, and coordinating with stakeholders. The Project

Scheduler works closely with project managers, engineers, procurement teams, field

supervisors, and subcontractors to keep projects on schedule across power plants,

substations, solar farms, wind farms, oil & gas facilities, and transmission & distribution

(T&D) projects.

Key Responsibilities

 Develop and maintain detailed project schedules using Primavera P6, MS Project, or

Procore.

 Establish project timelines, milestones, and critical path schedules to ensure timely

completion.

 Break down project activities into tasks, durations, dependencies, and resource

allocations.

 Coordinate with project teams to update schedules based on actual progress and

changes.

 Monitor construction progress, work sequencing, and milestone achievements.

 Conduct schedule analysis and forecasting to predict delays and resource bottlenecks.

 Implement Earned Value Management (EVM) techniques to track project performance.

 Generate progress reports, look-ahead schedules, and risk assessments for

management.

 Work closely with Project Managers, Engineers, Procurement Teams, and

Superintendents to align schedules with project execution plans.

 Coordinate with subcontractors and vendors to ensure material deliveries align with

schedule demands.

 Assist in workforce planning and resource allocation to meet schedule requirements.

 Facilitate weekly and monthly schedule review meetings with stakeholders.

 Identify potential delays, conflicts, and scheduling risks and propose mitigation

strategies.

 Perform what-if scenario analysis to evaluate potential project impacts and solutions.

 Optimize resource utilization, sequencing of work, and construction workflows.

 Maintain schedule baselines, change logs, and historical data for future project

planning.

 Prepare and distribute daily, weekly, and monthly schedule reports.

 Ensure compliance with contract scheduling requirements and client expectations.

 Support claim analysis and delay documentation in case of project disputes.

Required Skills & Qualifications

 Experience: 5+ years in project scheduling, preferably in energy sector projects (power

plants, renewables, T&D, oil & gas).
