About The Position

Are you the kind of person who sees a complex project and leans in to find solutions where others only see challenges? As the Schedule Lead for Centrus Energy, you'll be the master conductor behind our Integrated Master Schedule-translating strategy into executable plans, taming moving parts, and helping teams march in sync across a high-visibility, high-impact program. You'll shape schedule discipline, guide project teams, and turn uncertainty into clarity - all in support of work that directly contributes to America's clean-energy and national-security mission.

You'll own the development, maintenance, and performance reporting of the Integrated Master Schedule (IMS), oversee and mentor the scheduling team, and manage the Primavera (P6) database with expert precision. You'll coordinate routine status updates, partner with Control Account Managers (CAMs) and project leads to manage schedule risk and uncertainty, and perform critical path analysis to keep the project on course. Through rigorous schedule quality checks, forecasting, reporting, and cross-functional collaboration, you'll ensure project timelines stay accurate, realistic, and aligned with budget and mission objectives.
