- Align OR schedules with project delivery milestones, stage gates, and asset opening dates, maintaining interfaces with PMO and delivery partner schedules.
- Develop countdown plans and T-minus schedules for asset openings, including trial operations and soft opening phases.
- Track progress against baseline, identify slippage and critical path impacts, and escalate risks to readiness milestones with recovery options.
- Produce scheduling reports, dashboards, and lookaheads using Power BI and Excel for OR leadership and governance forums.
- Coordinate schedule inputs from functional leads and consolidate updates on an agreed cadence.
- Maintain schedule change control, baseline management, and documentation of assumptions and dependencies.
- Support workforce ramp-up planning by aligning recruitment, onboarding, and training timelines with operational need dates.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Project Management, Business Administration, or related field.
- 5–8 years of scheduling/planning experience, ideally within operational readiness, giga-projects, entertainment/hospitality openings, or large-scale infrastructure.
- Demonstrated hands-on Primavera P6 expertise, including baseline and change control on complex programmes.
- Experience supporting asset openings, trial operations, or commissioning-to-operations transitions strongly preferred.
- PMP, PMI-SP, or equivalent certification an advantage.
