About The Position

Savannah River Mission Completion (SRMC) is hiring a Work Control Planner or Senior Work Control Planner for its Aiken, South Carolina location at the Savannah River Site. The planner develops work packages for equipment and system modification work performed by non-union operations staff. Packages contain step-by-step instructions, procedures, safety requirements, and testing requirements. The planner identifies hazards, routes packages for appropriate review and approval, resolves package restraints and changes, and signs off packages so work can be scheduled. The role prepares and reviews work packages for modification, corrective maintenance, and preventive maintenance activities in accordance with applicable procedures, Department of Energy orders, and regulations. It involves interpreting engineering and vendor documents, conducting physical walkdowns, analyzing labor and material needs, developing hazard analyses and lockouts/tagouts, incorporating testing requirements, and performing related documentation, records, database, and permit activities. The planner regularly interfaces with facility staff about work-control questions and issues. The senior-level position additionally handles large, complex, or degraded-condition work scopes that require coordination across teams, including Assisted Hazard Analysis teams and subject-matter experts. Senior planners develop and route complex packages, assess corrective maintenance scope, prepare energy isolation instructions, and may review component history in the CMMS and relevant lessons learned.
