A project schedule slips. What happens next?
Do you understand which activities are driving the delay, how the critical path has changed and what the wider impact might be?
That's the type of scheduling experience I'm interested in.
I'm recruiting a Project Scheduler for a permanent opportunity supporting complex defence engineering programmes in Bristol.
This is more than a scheduling role.
Scheduling sits at the centre of a wider project controls environment. You'll work with project managers and technical teams to understand how plans, resources, costs and delivery performance fit together.
What the role involves
- Creating, maintaining and analysing project schedules
- Managing dependencies, milestones and baseline changes
- Understanding critical path and schedule performance
- Supporting project progress reporting and delivery forecasts
- Working with wider project controls information including resources, costs and risks
Experience with resource loading, cost loading, earned value or schedule risk analysis would be valuable.
What you need
You should have at least 2 years of hands‑on experience personally creating and maintaining project schedules.
Primavera P6 experience is particularly useful. Strong Microsoft Project experience or another recognised scheduling tool can also be considered.
General PMO administration or simply reporting against schedules created by other people won't provide the technical depth required.
Salary and location
£45K-£50K, permanent, with approximately 2-3 days per week onsite in Bristol.
British citizenship, including dual British citizenship where applicable, and eligibility for UK security clearance are required. Existing clearance is not essential.
