We’re entering an exciting phase of growth, and we’re looking for a Project Scheduler to help us lead the way.

 

As Project Scheduler you’ll be responsible for developing, maintaining and controlling project and portfolio schedules in alignment with AusNet requirements and industry best practices.

  • Develop, integrate, maintain, update and control the project schedule as per contract requirements and best practice

  • Provide support on schedule elements of tender evaluations
  • Develop and implement processes to report Earned Value Management metrics
  • Work with internal and external technical teams and stakeholders to analyse schedule impacts for design scope change requests and manage change management requests, including schedule scenario development

 

You don’t need to tick every box; however, we are looking for a good combination of:

  • Demonstrated experience in scheduling within infrastructure or energy industry
  • High level of organisational skills and demonstrated effectiveness handling multiple tasks, setting priorities, managing timeframes and meeting deadlines under pressure
  • Expert level competency using scheduling tools such as Primavera P6 and MS Project, required

  • Knowledge of SAP, Power BI, and risk analysis tools is advantageous
  • Sound understanding of project management practices and techniques
  • Relevant tertiary qualification (e.g. Engineering, Project Management or Quantity Surveying) preferred

 

A real place to belong.

We celebrate unique voices, refreshing perspectives and diversity in our team. Engage and connect through our social club, family day, wide range of events or by joining one of our Employee Network Groups.
