Senior Primavera Scheduler (Primavera P6)

Contract: 6-month duration
Schedule: Monday–Friday, in office
Location: Pico Rivera, CA

Position Overview

We are seeking a Senior Primavera Scheduler with deep technical expertise in Primavera P6 to support program-wide scheduling and resource-loading initiatives. This role focuses on improving schedule accuracy, transparency, and execution across multiple concurrent projects through disciplined resource and cost modeling.

A successful prototype is already in place. This role operationalizes and scales that effort within internal planning systems. In short, this is not theoretical work.

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform detailed resource and cost loading in Primavera P6 on a program-wide master schedule.
• Align project timelines with available labor, material, and equipment capacities.
• Support what-if scenario planning, workload balancing, and resource prioritization.
• Improve forecasting accuracy and identify resource constraints early.
• Provide visibility into resource demand across concurrent projects.
• Coordinate with Project Managers, discipline leads, and Project Controls to validate schedule inputs.
• Maintain accurate, transparent, and audit-ready scheduling data and reports.

• Advanced, hands-on experience with Primavera P6.
• Proven expertise in resource loading and cost loading within Primavera P6.
• Experience managing program-level or portfolio-level master schedules.
• Strong working knowledge of schedule logic, critical path, and forecasting techniques.

• Demonstrated experience supporting large, complex, multi-project environments.
• Direct collaboration experience with Project Managers and Project Controls teams.
• Ability to translate project inputs into accurate, actionable scheduling data.
• Experience identifying and resolving resource bottlenecks and capacity conflicts.

Requirements:

• Advanced, hands-on Primavera P6 experience, not read-only or reporting use.
• Proven resource loading AND cost loading experience within Primavera P6.
• Direct ownership of program-level or portfolio-level master schedules, not single-project only.
• Strong command of schedule logic, critical path method (CPM), and forecasting techniques.
• Demonstrated ability to perform what-if scenario planning and workload balancing in P6.

• Experience operationalizing scheduling initiatives beyond pilot or prototype stages.
• Background in public infrastructure, utilities, or large capital programs.
• Strong analytical and reporting skills to support leadership decision-making.
