Description

About the Positions We’re seeking Sr. Project Schedulers at various levels for large, heavy-civil infrastructure programs, including highways, roads, bridges, transit (both rail and bus), water, and airport projects delivered through both traditional and alternative methods. You’ll craft logic-driven CPM schedules, fold in procurement and third-party dependencies, and convert field data into clear progress updates and forecasts. By surfacing critical-path risks early, shaping recovery strategies, and keeping stakeholders aligned, you’ll help every project advance safely, efficiently, and on time. This post is for future roles and not for a specific opportunity that is available right now. We accept applications and conduct interviews in advance of upcoming hiring needs. When a candidate is selected, their profile is activated in our talent pool for this specialty area. We notify our talent pool candidates first whenever we have a project need. This post targets Phoenix, AZ. Responsibilities may include, but are not limited to, the following: Build and maintain an integrated CPM schedule that could cover design through turnover, with logically linked activities, resource or cost loading, and clear coding for cost-control alignment. Collect field progress data, update status weekly or monthly, and produce look-aheads, variance reports, and earned-value forecasts. Run critical path and what-if analyses to test sequencing options, recovery plans, and alternative delivery scenarios. Integrate third-party interfaces, permitting, utility relocations, and long-lead procurement items, so the plan reflects all external dependencies. Generate concise narrative reports, Gantt charts, S-curves, and/or KPI dashboards for project managers, field teams, and executive stakeholders. Perform schedule-risk assessments—identify drivers, quantify exposure with tools such as Monte Carlo simulations, recommend contingencies, and track mitigation actions. Support change orders and claims by preparing Time Impact Analyses that tie delays to cost and contractual entitlement. Enforce schedule governance standards, maintain data integrity in scheduling tools, and mentor junior schedulers to raise overall planning maturity. Attributes Excellent written and verbal communication and interpersonal skills. Excellent multi-tasking and organizational skills. Collaborative mindset that fosters teamwork, trust, and positive relationships. Natural curiosity, problem-solving abilities, and a passion for continuous improvement. Minimum Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in engineering, construction management, or related field, or equivalent combination of education and experience. 10+ years of hands-on experience with large (>$500M), complex, heavy-civil highways, roads, bridges, transit (rail or bus), airports, or water projects. Experience with full CPM baseline schedule development, resource or cost loading, progress updating, and variance analysis. Proven ability to interpret project scope, drawings, and constraints and translate them into logic-driven and sequenced, resource-aware schedules. Proficiency with industry standard project and construction management software (e.g., Primavera P6, TILOS, MS Project, Bluebeam, RSMeans, etc.). Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite/Office 365 (e.g., Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.). Preferred Qualifications Master’s degree in engineering or construction management. Active professional certifications such as PSP (AACE), PMI-SP or PMP (PMI), and/or CCM (CMAA). Experience delivering projects through both traditional and alternative methods (e.g., DB, CM/GC, P3, CMAR). Experience preparing Time Impact Analyses, and quantifying schedule risk using Monte Carlo or similar methods. Proficiency in schedule risk analysis using tools such as Primavera Risk, Deltek Acumen Fuse, or @Risk. Proficiency with Power BI, Tableau, or similar platforms for building interactive dashboards and KPI visualizations. Compensation Details Expected Salary: $120k-$190k/year ($57-$91/hour).
