- Provide structured planning and controls reporting to BU leadership and client PMO stakeholders as applicable (milestone status, variance, critical path, decision logs).
- Support change control processes by assessing schedule impacts of scope changes and providing clear documentation for approval workflows.
- Drive planning discipline and consistency by applying standard templates, schedule quality checks, and planning best practices.
- Capture lessons learned and contribute to continuous improvement of planning standards, tools, and practices within the BU.
Required Qualifications
- 6–10 years of experience in project planning, scheduling, project controls, or PMO controls within complex delivery environments.
- Demonstrated ability to build and manage integrated schedules for multi-workstream projects or programs.
