Depending on the project stream, you may be involved in HME asset delivery, OEM/vendor coordination, resource planning, project interfaces, engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning and operational readiness.

- Monitoring project progress, trends, productivity and key milestones
- Reviewing and integrating contractor, supplier and vendor schedules
- Maintaining schedule integrity and undertaking schedule health checks
- Supporting project reporting, forecasting and performance analysis
- Supporting change management and understanding the impact of changing priorities
- Participating in schedule workshops, risk reviews and project meetings
- Coordinating interfaces across engineering, procurement, contractors, suppliers and operations
- Supporting project delivery through execution, commissioning and handover
- Working closely with internal and external stakeholders to identify constraints and develop practical solutions

Required Experience:

- Significant experience in project planning, scheduling or project controls
- Strong experience working across complex projects with multiple interfaces
- Advanced Primavera P6 capability
- Experience with resource and/or cost-loaded schedules
- Strong understanding of project controls and schedule management
- Experience analysing contractor, supplier or vendor schedules
- The ability to understand and respond to project change and shifting priorities
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills




- A practical and team-oriented approach to problem solving
- The ability to work autonomously while operating effectively within a broader project team

Experience across mining, heavy equipment, infrastructure, energy, construction, renewables or major projects will be highly regarded.

For HME-focused workstreams, experience with heavy mobile equipment, OEM/vendor coordination, asset delivery or commissioning will be particularly advantageous.
