At SMK, you’re not just filling a role, you’re joining a group of professionals who respect each other’s expertise, enjoy working together, and are committed to growing the firm thoughtfully and sustainably.

The Role:

SMK is seeking a seasoned Senior Construction Scheduler to support and lead scheduling efforts for complex infrastructure and heavy civil design and construction projects, which may include transportation, rail, facilities, multi-modal, and large highway programs. The successful candidate will bring advanced Critical Path Method (CPM) scheduling expertise, deep hands-on experience with Primavera P6, and a proven ability to develop schedules and analyze, manage, and communicate schedule risks, constraints, and construction sequencing.

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is someone who enjoys being trusted to take ownership of their work and is comfortable operating without heavy oversight. They are naturally curious, ask the right questions early, and think several steps ahead when developing or reviewing schedules.

They have the confidence to challenge assumptions, respectfully and constructively, and are comfortable explaining schedule logic, risks, and impacts to both technical and non-technical audiences. Rather than simply updating schedules, they focus on understanding why activities move, where risk is accumulating, and how decisions affect the overall program.

The ideal candidate values clarity, accuracy, and professionalism in written communication and takes pride in producing narratives and analyses that stand up to scrutiny. They are organized, pragmatic, and calm under pressure, with the judgment to prioritize what truly matters when multiple deadlines compete.

Finally, the ideal candidate is someone who appreciates working in a small, close-knit team. They are generous with their knowledge, supportive of colleagues, and motivated by contributing to a respectful, collaborative environment where people genuinely enjoy working together.

Key Responsibilities:

In this role, you will be responsible for a variety of tasks, including:

• Develop, maintain, and manage cost and resource-loaded CPM schedules using Primavera P6 and other scheduling tools.

• Review designer and contractor schedule submittals, including baseline and re-baseline schedules, monthly updates, Time Impact Analyses, acceleration schedules, and recovery plans, for contractual and technical compliance.
• Perform independent time-impact analyses and review contractor requests for time extensions and delay-related submissions.
• Analyze schedule progress, critical paths, float consumption, and forecasted completion; identify at-risk activities and recommend mitigation strategies.
• Conduct site visits to active heavy civil construction projects to verify progress, document conditions, and perform or review schedule updates.
• Perform “what-if” schedule scenarios to assess impacts to milestones and overall project delivery.
• Prepare clear, well-documented technical reports, narratives, charts, and graphics summarizing schedule analyses and findings.
• Provide quality review of schedule-related reports prepared by others.
• Attend and participate in client progress and scheduling meetings; confidently present schedule updates, analyses, and recommendations.
• Coordinate closely with project managers, designers, contractors, and internal teams to resolve schedule issues and support effective project delivery.
• Support the maintenance and updating of SMK’s company-wide project and program schedules.

Key Attributes:

• Exceptional written, verbal, and organizational skills.
• Demonstrated proficiency in independently authoring clear, well-structured analytical reports and narratives.
• Ability to work independently while also collaborating effectively within a team.
• Strong, intuitive understanding of construction principles, sequencing, and contractor means and methods.
• Professional judgment and confidence to step into client-facing discussions.
• Flexibility with work location within Eastern Massachusetts.
