Construction Project Scheduler 2 – Airports & Infrastructure

Connico•Cincinnati, OH

5d•$80,000 - $90,000•Hybrid

About The Position

Connico is hiring a Construction Project Scheduler 2 to support construction scheduling for complex projects across aviation, transportation, energy, and infrastructure. The role is intended for someone with construction experience and some exposure to planning or scheduling who is developing deeper technical proficiency and scheduling judgment. The scheduler works with experienced colleagues to develop work breakdown structures, activities, durations, sequencing logic, schedule updates, and phasing plans. The position assists with schedule development, baseline creation, progress updates, variance identification, documentation, and short- and long-term planning. It also involves reviewing drawings and specifications, considering realistic construction sequencing and site constraints, and participating in site visits and field meetings to connect schedule information with actual construction progress. The successful candidate will build proficiency in Primavera P6 and Connico’s scheduling processes through collaboration, training, mentorship, and quality reviews. The position is hybrid, with in-office work Tuesday through Thursday at either the Hebron, Kentucky (Cincinnati area) or Mt. Juliet, Tennessee (Nashville area) location. Travel of 10–25% is required for site visits, client meetings, and conferences. Salary is $80,000–$90,000 depending on experience, with bonus opportunities.

Requirements

1–2+ years of construction-related experience that includes exposure to construction scheduling, planning, sequencing, or schedule management.
Bachelor’s degree in construction management, civil engineering, engineering, architecture, or a related field, or equivalent relevant construction experience.
Experience contributing to construction schedules, look-ahead plans, phasing plans, progress updates, WBS development, or similar planning activities.
Experience with Primavera P6 or another construction scheduling platform.
Direct exposure to active construction sites or field construction teams.
Foundational understanding of how construction activities, trades, and project phases are sequenced.
Ability to read and interpret basic architectural, civil, or engineering drawings and specifications.
Strong attention to detail, organization, and communication, with curiosity and willingness to learn.
Willingness to travel 10–25% for site visits, client meetings, and conferences.

Nice To Haves

Experience in field engineering, project engineering, construction inspection, civil engineering, VDC/preconstruction, superintendent support, construction management, or a similar field-based role.
Experience with construction phasing, sequencing, or look-ahead planning.

Experience with Excel, BIM/VDC software, or construction management platforms.

Responsibilities

Assist in developing construction schedules using project scope, drawings, specifications, milestones, known constraints, and project-team input.
Help build and adjust work breakdown structures, activities, durations, sequencing logic, milestones, and schedule assumptions.
Support baseline development, progress updates, variance identification, and schedule documentation.
Assist with short-term and look-ahead planning as well as longer-term project schedules.
Apply construction knowledge to identify realistic sequencing, phasing, access, logistics, and trade coordination.
Use quantities, production rates, historical project information, and field input to support schedule development.
Build proficiency in Primavera P6 and Connico’s scheduling processes.
Review architectural, engineering, and civil drawings and specifications to identify construction activities and sequencing requirements.
Recognize trade interfaces, phasing requirements, site constraints, and potential sequencing conflicts.
Support development of schedule assumptions, milestone summaries, sequencing notes, and client-facing documentation.
Participate in site visits and field meetings to understand project conditions, confirm progress, and connect schedule information to construction activity.
Work with experienced schedulers to complete assigned schedule components accurately and on time.
Participate in schedule development, update, and reconciliation meetings.
Maintain accurate schedule documentation and version control.
Communicate questions, potential risks, and field observations to senior team members.
Participate in internal technical training, mentorship, and quality reviews.
