About The Position

QISG is seeking an experienced EPC Planning & Scheduling Manager to lead integrated planning and scheduling efforts across complex, multi-project EPC construction programs. This role will be responsible for developing project planning strategies, overseeing a team of Scheduler/Planners, and building a strong scheduling function to support successful project execution. The ideal candidate is a hands-on planning leader who understands how engineering, procurement, construction, subcontractor activities, resources, and constraints impact project outcomes. This individual will work closely with clients, subcontractors, project leadership, and internal teams to establish realistic execution plans, manage critical path activities, identify schedule risks, and drive proactive solutions. This role requires someone who can go beyond schedule updates — a leader who understands what drives the critical path, how logic relationships, lag/lead time, and float impact project completion, and how to influence teams to protect key milestones.
