Senior Project Scheduler

Fcl Builders LLC

Job Description

Job Description

Build Smarter with Every Schedule.

At FCL Builders , we know that every successful project starts with a solid plan—and that plan depends on the schedule. As a Construction Project Scheduler , you’ll be the mastermind behind our timelines, ensuring complex projects run smoothly, predictably, and on time. You’ll work hand-in-hand with our project managers, field teams, and trade partners to turn ideas into well-sequenced, achievable construction plans. Your ability to see the big picture—and the small details—will be key to driving results from preconstruction through closeout.

Why FCL Builders?

  • Make an Impact: Your work directly influences project success, profitability, and client satisfaction.
  • Become an Employee Owner: Partner and collaborate with experienced professionals who are invested in your success.
  • Grow With Us: Gain exposure across multiple project types and sizes in commercial and industrial sectors.
  • Supportive Culture: We believe in mentorship, open communication, and having each other’s backs.
  • Great People, Great Workplace: Thanks to our people, FCL is proud to have earned Great Place to Work Certification for the second year in a row. Our company culture is our top priority!

What You’ll Do:

Strategic Planning & Coordination

  • Create, manage, and update comprehensive construction schedules for multi-million-dollar projects
  • Lead the development of baseline schedules during early project phases (conceptual, schematic, design development)
  • Collaborate with project managers, engineers, and trade partners to gather inputs and align sequencing
  • Analyze drawings and specifications to determine accurate critical path timelines and identify risks
  • Coordinate subcontractor and supplier activity to ensure schedule alignment
  • Perform impact analysis on delays or design changes and adjust timelines as needed
  • Facilitate and lead weekly schedule reviews with internal and external teams

Execution & Schedule Management

  • Monitor progress and keep stakeholders informed with clear, consistent updates
  • Integrate scheduling with project cost controls and procurement
  • Load cost and resource data into Primavera P6 schedules for deeper project insights
  • Maintain a proactive approach—identifying issues before they become problems
  • Lead the creation of “as-built” schedules and delay analysis documentation

Data & Reporting Excellence

  • Prepare high-quality monthly schedule reports and project narratives
  • Analyze productivity and identify performance trends across multiple jobsites
  • Ensure quality and accuracy of data inputs and project team updates
  • Maintain an audit trail for all scheduling decisions from start to finish
  • Support project status reporting including critical path analysis and milestone tracking

What We’re Looking For:

Required:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or related field (or equivalent experience)
  • 10+ years of scheduling experience in large-scale commercial and/or industrial construction (projects $5M–$100M+)
  • Advanced proficiency with Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project
  • Familiarity with estimating and procurement processes
  • Ability to read construction drawings and specification manuals
  • Strong communication and organizational skills—confident working with both field and office teams
  • Willingness to travel as needed

Preferred:

  • BIM experience (for 4D scheduling and sequencing)
  • Prior experience in estimating or project management for a GC
  • Familiarity with CMiC, Bluebeam, and Microsoft Office Suite

Physical Requirements:

  • Able to navigate active construction sites and work in all weather conditions
  • Comfortable climbing stairs or ladders as needed
  • Ability to sit for extended periods during planning and reporting
  • Tolerance for occasional high-noise or dusty environments during site visits

What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary, bonus structure
  • Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
  • Career development and mentorship programs
  • Comprehensive and competitive benefits (health, dental, vision and so much more!)
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • An inclusive, collaborative culture where your voice matters

What Success Looks Like:

  • On-Time Delivery: Projects consistently track to key milestones
  • Risk Management: Issues are anticipated early and addressed proactively
  • Team Collaboration: Schedules are integrated with buy-in from all stakeholders
  • Client Confidence: Reliable reports and timelines build trust and credibility
  • Project Clarity: Everyone—from PMs to field teams—knows the plan and the path forward
