Job Title: Senior Resource Planner (Manufacturing & Power Gen)

Location: Alpharetta, GA (On-site/Hybrid)

ROLE SUMMARY

We are seeking a highly analytical Senior Resource Planner to lead the optimization of our project lifecycle, from planning through commissioning. This is not a traditional scheduling role; you will act as a strategic advisor, auditing our current "Excel-centric" workflows to identify inefficiencies and architecting data-driven solutions. You will bridge the gap between complex power generation manufacturing and modern project management methodology, leveraging Power BI and AI tools to transform raw data into actionable executive insights for people and materials planning.

STRATEGIC RESPONSIBILITIES

• Resource Planning: Review existing MS Excel plans and develop an all-encompassing resource and material view to ensure each project is properly staffed with acceptable levels of utilization
• Operational Audit: Analyze existing project management and manufacturing workflows currently managed in MS Excel. Identify "single points of failure," data silos, and opportunities for automation.
• Systems Architecture: Lead the transition from manual spreadsheet tracking to integrated project controls. Develop logically linked master schedules that account for manufacturing lead times and on-site commissioning variables.
• Advanced Data Visualization: Design and implement Power BI dashboards to provide real-time visibility into project health, cost control, and resource needs and utilization across the portfolio.
• Critical Path & Risk Modeling: Perform advanced critical path analysis and "what-if" scenarios for high-stakes power generation and automation projects.
• Cross-Functional Advisory: Serve as the lead technical advisor to Project Managers and Engineers, resolving complex scheduling bottlenecks and resource conflicts.
• Automation & AI Integration: Explore and implement AI-driven tools to enhance forecasting accuracy and automate repetitive data entry tasks within the project lifecycle.
• Commissioning Oversight: Integrate site-specific commissioning phases into the master manufacturing schedule to ensure seamless handoffs and contract compliance.

KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS & EDUCATION

• Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or Business Analytics.
• Experience: 7+ years of experience in forecasting, project planning/scheduling within Manufacturing, Power Generation, or Industrial Automation.
• Excel Mastery: Expert-level MS Excel skills (VBA, Power Query, Macros, complex modeling) are required, as you will be "deconstructing" the current business logic built into spreadsheets.
• Modern Stack: Proficiency in Power BI is highly desirable. Experience with AI-assisted project management tools is a significant plus.
• Technical Tools: MS Project or Primavera P6 is a plus but not required.
• Analytical Mindset: Proven ability to translate technical manufacturing constraints into clear, high-level business reports for stakeholders.
