- Build and maintain project schedules, including dependencies, critical path, milestones, and forecasting, securing a realistic delivery pace based on FAS scope.
- Ensure alignment between operational plans and Supply/delivery plans, enforcing planning governance and data quality, and escalating missing or poor-quality inputs when required.

- Analyze operational, financial and delivery progress, using data to identify trends, risks, and improvement opportunities, and produce accurate, timely project status and performance reports.
- Configure and validate project setup in planning tools (including Site Tracker, Global Chronos, and related systems), administer data, and support standardization and continuous improvement.
- Provide CPMs and stakeholders with standard and advanced status reports, advise on actions to maintain process adherence and data quality, and support E+OHS compliance and responsible business practices.

- You have solid experience in project planning within complex, multi-project environments (scheduling, dependencies, critical path, milestones, forecasting).
- You bring a strong governance mindset and data discipline, consistently producing accurate, reliable plans and high-quality data.
- You demonstrate critical thinking: you are comfortable challenging unrealistic plans, highlighting risks, and proposing workable alternatives.
- You have proven stakeholder management and influencing skills, especially when partnering with project managers and cross-functional teams.
- You have hands-on experience with Site Tracker and other project planning tools
- You communicate clearly, with strong documentation, reporting and presentation skills
