A strong candidate should demonstrate mastery of project scheduling and controls within the capital project lifecycle (planning through maintenance and operations), and have a proven record of success leading client engagements and project teams. We are looking for someone who is a self-starter, comfortable with ambiguity, and able to manage complex scheduling efforts across diverse infrastructure projects.

  • Minimum Years of Experience: Five (5+)

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including client presentations and stakeholder engagement

  • Ability and willingness to travel 50% or more, depending on client needs and project location

  • The successful candidate must not be subject to employment restrictions from a former employer (such as a non-compete) that would prevent the candidate from performing the job responsibilities as described

  • Due to nature of client engagements, US Citizenship restrictions may apply

Specifically, this individual should have a proven successful record of having led one or more of the following areas:

  • Project scheduling and schedule analytics , including development, maintenance, and analysis of complex project schedules

  • Advanced schedule modeling and diagnostics , e.g. critical path method (CPM), float analysis, schedule compression, time-cost trade-offs, and change impact assessments

  • Construction project controls , e.g. schedule control, earned value, change management

  • Performance metrics and project reporting , including dashboard development and KPI tracking

  • Stakeholder engagement and coordination , e.g. facilitating alignment across owners, regulators, contractors, and community partners

  • Project technology and systems , e.g. deployment and use of scheduling tools, PMIS platforms, and delay quantification tools

  • Candidates should have experience working in infrastructure-intensive industries (e.g., nuclear facilities, power or water utilities, transportation infrastructure, data centers, mining, and other infrastructure). Candidates should have interest and aptitude for helping client agencies solve real-world business challenges.

What Would Be Nice To Have:

  • Master's Degree (MBA, MS, MPP, MPA, etc.)

  • Professional Engineer (PE) license

  • Project Management Professional (PMP)

The annual salary range for this position is $113,000.00-$188,000.00. Compensation decisions depend on a wide range of factors, including but not limited to skill sets, experience and training, security clearances, licensure and certifications, and other business and organizational needs.

Benefits include:

  • Medical, Rx, Dental & Vision Insurance
