• Foster a collaborative work environment focused on teamwork, communication, and safe work execution.

• Develop, maintain, and monitor project schedules using Primavera P6 to ensure work is executed safely and efficiently.

• Monitor field performance, productivity, and schedule adherence while identifying and mitigating execution challenges.

• Maintain accurate work status information and communicate project progress, issues, and recovery plans to management and stakeholders.

• Review and validate work packages developed by work planners to ensure scope, sequencing, resources, and execution plans are clearly defined and executable.

• Coordinate materials, equipment, tools, and resources necessary to support planned work activities.

• Interpret and utilize construction drawings, blueprints, schematics, and engineering documents to support field execution, work package development, and resolve construction issues.

• Lead constructability reviews and provide input regarding work sequencing, access requirements, and field execution strategies.

• Participate in investigations of abnormal events, incidents, and near misses and assist with implementation of corrective actions.


Qualifications:

• 10 years of work experience, including 5 years of experience in construction, maintenance, facility operations, or field supervision.

• Nuclear project or operational experience is required.

• Experience supporting or leading facility upgrades, renovations, modifications, or maintenance projects in an operating facility environment.

• Leadership and supervisory skills with the ability to organize, direct, and coordinate craft personnel and subcontractors.

• Ability to read and interpret mechanical, electrical, piping, and construction drawings, blueprints, schematics, and specifications.

• Basic understanding of Earned Value Management System (EVMS)
