You will work closely with Project Managers, Superintendents, Estimators, and senior operations leadership to develop and maintain project schedules while helping ensure projects remain aligned with critical milestones and overall delivery objectives.

This role offers exposure to all phases of project execution, from pre-construction planning through construction and project closeout.

• Coordinate scheduling information across operations, estimating, and field teams
  
• Identify schedule impacts and assist with mitigation planning
  
• Participate in project meetings and planning sessions
