About The Position

The Senior Project Controls Scheduler is a key member of BGE’s Project Initiation Team, responsible for developing and maintaining integrated project schedules during the early phases of major Transmission capital projects. This role focuses on building high‑level, milestone‑driven schedules that support project scoping, feasibility, and readiness for Phase 1 authorization. Working closely with Project Managers, Project Controls, Planning, Engineering, and Estimating, the Senior Scheduler develops schedules based on evolving scope, assumptions, and constraints, ensuring alignment across technical, financial, and governance inputs. The position plays a critical role in identifying schedule drivers, risks, and timing constraints early in the project lifecycle, enabling more accurate forecasting and informed decision‑making. In addition, the Senior Project Controls Scheduler supports scenario planning and schedule risk analysis, helping the team evaluate alternatives, anticipate delays, and understand impacts to key milestones and cash flow timing. This role ensures schedules are clear, defensible, and suitable for governance review, while maintaining consistency with project controls standards. The Senior Project Controls Scheduler does not support execution scheduling instead, the role ensures that projects are transitioned to execution teams with a well‑defined schedule framework, transparent assumptions, and a clear understanding of risks and dependencies improving execution readiness, reducing uncertainty, and strengthening portfolio predictability.
