About The Position

The Energy Solutions Planner/Scheduler is a project-based hybrid role that reports directly to the Construction Manager. The position focuses on construction project and bid deliverables, primarily detailed schedules and lookaheads, while supporting multiple ongoing and future projects. Energy Solutions primarily builds power generation facilities using natural-gas combustion engines and may integrate batteries, solar, or wind. The role works with a multidisciplinary team across engineering, procurement, construction, project management, and site operations.

The Planner/Scheduler develops, maintains, and updates project schedules using MS Project or P6, and integrates updates into project Procore folders. The role also documents schedule revisions, maintains current project information, identifies and records project obstacles, and presents potential solutions to the Construction Manager and relevant project and application managers. Planning and scheduling activities must comply with company policies, legal requirements, local ordinances, permits, and ethical standards.
