Analyze critical paths, schedule risks, and potential delays while identifying mitigation and acceleration strategies. Implement change control processes for scope, cost, and schedule, including tracking changes and supporting approval workflows. Assess project risks and opportunities, quantify potential cost and schedule impacts, and support contingency planning. Coordinate with engineering, construction, procurement, finance, contractors, and external project partners to ensure alignment across project deliverables. Prepare executive-level reports, dashboards, forecasts, and performance metrics to support project reviews and investment decisions. Support contract change management, claims documentation, invoice reviews, cost accruals, and financial reporting. Drive continuous improvement of project controls tools, systems, reporting processes, and governance standards. Required Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Business, Finance, or a related discipline. 7+ years of experience in project controls, cost engineering, scheduling, or project management within energy or infrastructure projects. Strong experience with both cost controls and project scheduling. Proficiency in Primavera P6 and/or Microsoft Project. Advanced Excel skills and experience with Power BI or similar reporting and analytics tools. Understanding of EPC contracting, procurement workflows, cost forecasting, change management, and project progress measurement. Ability to analyze complex project data and communicate findings through clear, actionable reports. Strong analytical, organizational, communication, and stakeholder management skills. Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities in a fast-paced environment. Preferred Qualifications Experience supporting power generation, utilities, industrial, midstream, or data center infrastructure projects. Experience working with EPC contractors, owner's engineers, and joint venture partners. Familiarity with earned value management, project risk analysis, and capital project governance. PMP, AACE/CCP, PSP, or another relevant professional certification. Competitive base salary based on experience. Performance-based bonus eligibility. Medical, dental, and vision insurance.
