Job Description

ABOUT US

At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world’s largest and most complex scientific instruments, they study the basic constituents of matter - fundamental particles that are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives physicists clues about how particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. Find out more on http://home.cern.

As a Project Monitoring & Control Officer you will join the Accelerator & Technology Directorate Office (ATS-DO). Your team will be the Monitoring & Control Office, within the Planning section of the Project office of HL-LHC.
In this role, you’ll be responsible for the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) project.
The HL-LHC Project is a major upgrade of the LHC accelerator, increasing the integrated luminosity. Making use of cutting-edge technologies for the accelerator’s main elements, the project foresees also significant expansion of underground infrastructure.
Work is structured in 19 work-packages (WP) of budget ranging from some millions to some hundreds million CHF. Collaborations with European and international institutes cover a considerable part of the scope.
The position presents opportunities for learning and implementing Project management tools and processes in the exciting framework of one of the largest accelerator technologies projects in the world, in a truly international environment.

In this position, you will:

• be the link-person to several of the work-packages of the project;
• structure planned activities in EVM;
• work on cost change management, reprofiling of expenses and projecting real cost against planned cost with a general view on the WP situation and changes;
• prepare financial analysis, schedule analysis, minutes and EVM metrics interpretation.
