Project Planner

We are seeking a Project Planner to prepare and maintain the project schedule, track actual progress against the approved plan, and provide timely reports and recovery recommendations to support completion within the contractual deadlines. The role involves developing a detailed baseline schedule covering engineering, approvals, procurement, construction, testing, and handover, with clear milestones and activity dependencies; organizing activities by discipline, area, and measurable quantities, including excavation, duct banks, cable pulling, equipment installation, and reinstatement; coordinating with site engineers to establish manpower, equipment, and productivity requirements for each activity; issuing weekly and two-to-four-week look-ahead plans identifying work fronts, required resources, materials, drawings, permits, and inspections; collecting and verifying daily installed quantities, activity start and finish dates, manpower, and equipment usage against site records; updating the schedule and progress curves using agreed quantity-based or weighted progress rules to measure planned versus actual performance and show daily, weekly, and cumulative achievement without double counting; identifying activities affecting completion, tracking outstanding approvals and deliveries, and assigning each constraint an action owner and required resolution date; explaining schedule variances, forecasting completion dates, and coordinating corrective measures with the Project Manager and execution team; providing clear progress dashboards showing planned versus actual progress, productivity, milestones, delays, site photographs, and priorities for the next reporting period; and recording approved scope changes and delay events, assessing their schedule impact, and supporting time-extension submissions while preserving the original baseline.
