Working closely with Project Managers, site teams, commercial teams and client planners, you'll play a key role in developing, managing and maintaining accurate project programmes that support successful project delivery.

We invest in ongoing professional development, supporting both internal progression and external training opportunities, giving you the tools to continue building a successful long-term career with us.
This is a full-time permanent position based from our Head Office in Sevenoaks.
As one of our Planners, you will:
Produce fully logic-linked construction programmes with clear critical paths, float, constraints and contractual milestones.
Develop, update and maintain contract programmes using Primavera P6, incorporating actual progress, revised forecasts and current construction information.

You'll have experience producing logic-linked construction programmes, managing critical paths, assessing programme risk and developing mitigation and recovery plans. You'll also have a strong understanding of how programme management links to construction delivery, change control, delay and commercial entitlement.
