Project Scheduler

Mission Critical | Healthcare | Advanced Construction Projects

Atlanta, GA

Most scheduling opportunities offer bigger projects. This one offers a different career path.

Our client is an established contractor delivering complex projects across the Mission Critical, Healthcare, Commercial and Industrial sectors throughout the Southeast. Their reputation has been built around technical project delivery, combining planning, preconstruction, project management, field execution and innovative construction methodologies to deliver some of the region's most challenging projects.

As demand continues to grow across their project portfolio, they are looking to add a Project Scheduler who wants more than simply maintaining project schedules.

This is an opportunity to become a recognised technical specialist within one of construction's fastest growing sectors.

Why This Opportunity Is Different

Many schedulers spend their careers within large general contractors, supporting projects as part of larger scheduling teams.

This opportunity offers the chance to become a key scheduling resource within a growing business, working directly with project leadership and influencing project outcomes from planning through completion.

You'll gain exposure to:

• Mission Critical / Data Center projects
• Complex MEP and building systems
• Advanced construction planning and sequencing
• Procurement-driven scheduling
• Prefabrication and off-site manufacturing
• Commissioning and turnover planning
• Schedule recovery and risk mitigation
• Executive-level project reporting

This is the type of experience that can transform a strong scheduler into a highly sought-after technical specialist.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain Primavera P6 schedules
• Support planning and preconstruction activities
• Perform critical path analysis and schedule risk reviews
• Work closely with project managers, superintendents and field leadership
• Support procurement and construction sequencing strategies

The strongest candidates typically:

• Think beyond schedule updates
• Understand how projects are built in the field
• Enjoy solving complex project challenges
• Want direct exposure to decision-makers
• Have an interest in becoming a technical expert
• Want greater influence over project outcomes

What's In It For You?

• Exposure to some of the most complex projects in construction
• Significant visibility with senior leadership
• Opportunity to become a recognised subject matter expert
• Greater project ownership than typically found within large corporate environments
• Long-term progression into senior project controls and leadership positions
• Opportunity to play a meaningful role in the growth of a highly respected contractor

The Bottom Line

If you're looking to build a career as a recognised project controls and technical scheduling specialist, whilst working on complex mission critical and healthcare projects, this could be the opportunity that sets you apart from the rest of the market.
