Job overview

Our client is seeking a Senior Planning Engineer to accelerate execution across a large brownfield pipeline and facilities portfolio by advancing project readiness, identifying risks and opportunities, and aligning stakeholders to move work safely into service sooner.

Must Have skills
  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, preferably Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, or a related discipline
  • Eligible for registration as a Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) with the applicable regulator
  • 8+ years of experience supporting execution of pipeline or facilities projects with accountability for scope, schedule, or execution outcomes
  • Strong understanding of brownfield execution in energized electrical systems and/or pressurized, flowing pipelines
  • Hands-on experience working cross-functionally with Project Management, Project Controls, Schedulers, Construction, Operations, Supply Chain, and Sponsors
  • Proven ability to influence, negotiate, and align multiple stakeholders to drive execution readiness, advancement, and follow-through
  • Experience identifying program-level risks and opportunities and translating them into practical execution actions


Nice to Have skills
  • Business-related degree, certification, or experience in Asset Management, Capital Planning, or Portfolio Optimization
  • PMP certification or formal project management training
  • Field engineering, construction management, or inspection experience
  • Pipeline intervention experience such as stopples, biseps, line stops, or hot taps
  • Deep supplier network for electrical components, including switchgear and power transformers
  • Experience applying value-based or asset-focused investment decision-making frameworks
  • Experience with GIS or spatial plot planning for congestion management, sequencing, and resource planning


Responsibilities
  • Collaborate with Project Managers, Project Controls, Schedulers, Construction Managers, Regional Engineers, Maintenance teams, Supply Chain, and Sponsors to drive execution readiness across the portfolio
  • Own execution readiness for a large, multi-year portfolio of pipeline and facilities projects, ensuring work is coordinated, mature, and ready when execution windows open
  • Identify and drive program-level risk mitigation and opportunity optimization to improve schedule certainty, resource capacity, and investment value
  • Increase in-year capital execution by advancing in-scope work, accelerating in-service dates, and unlocking execution readiness ahead of plan
  • Identify high-value tuck-in or complementary scopes that can be bundled with sanctioned work to improve capital efficiency and business value
  • Evaluate capital-versus-schedule trade-offs related to early engineering, long-lead materials, contractor capacity, procurement strategy, and enabling works
  • Partner with Supply Chain to align procurement strategies, vendor capacity, and material delivery timelines with execution opportunities
  • Engage Sponsors and Investment Owners to align scope, timing, funding, and value realization decisions
  • Maintain the department-level Golden Project List and ensure priorities reflect readiness, sponsor objectives, supply-chain realities, and advancement opportunities
  • Manage planning and progress data across 200+ projects to ensure accuracy, consistency, and usability across regions
  • Develop and maintain GIS-based spatial plot plans to manage site congestion, sequencing, and resource constraints
  • Act as the key integration point between Engineering, Construction, Operations, Project Controls, Supply Chain, and Sponsors
  • Use strong relationship-building and negotiation skills to resolve constraints and ensure commitments are carried through to field execution and into service



What success looks like
  • In-year capital execution is increased through advancement of in-service dates and pull-forward of executable scope
  • High-value complementary scopes across electrical, civil, and mechanical disciplines are identified early and executed efficiently
  • Materials, funding, and execution windows are aligned proactively rather than reactively
  • Risks are surfaced early and resolved collaboratively across stakeholders
  • Commitments made in planning and sponsor forums are translated into field execution and successful in-service outcomes
