Planner - Project Control

Roles and responsibilities

You will need to demonstrate a high degree of technical autonomy: you will be required to translate plans and specifications into logical construction sequences without constant supervision.

Planning and Resource Management

• Develop and maintain master schedules using MS Project and Primavera P6.

• Logic construction: Independently define activities, durations, and logical precedence links based on analysis of contractual documents (plans, specifications).

• Critical expertise: Integrate and balance resources (human and material) in schedules to ensure a realistic and optimized workload.

• Establish the work breakdown structure (WBS) in collaboration with the project team.

Monitoring, Control, and Change Management

• Impact Management: Integrate changes into the schedule and perform forensic analysis of the impacts (delays, costs) caused by delays, change notices, or unforeseen events on site.

• Rigorously monitor progress (physical and financial) and analyze deviations from the baseline.

• Produce key performance indicator (KPI) reports and progress curves (S-curves).

• Identify critical paths and propose catch-up or acceleration scenarios in the event of deviations.

• Actively participate in project closure and post-mortems.

Collaboration and Continuous Improvement

• Work closely with project managers, directors, subcontractors, and clients to align implementation strategies.

• Review and validate schedules submitted by partners and subcontractors.

• Propose innovative control methods to improve internal project management processes.
