Role Description:

The Resolute Group are working in partnership with a well-established engineering contractor specialising in HV infrastructure, substation build and multi-disciplinary delivery across the Energy sector. Operating as a principal contractor on major frameworks, they deliver full lifecycle solutions from early design coordination and procurement through to installation, commissioning and energisation.

With a secured long-term framework in place with Scottish Power Energy Networks, the business is delivering substation upgrades and new build works including M&E installations, primary and secondary electrical packages and circuit breaker replacement programmes. These works involve complex sequencing, outage coordination, interface management and live environment constraints.

Due to sustained framework growth and a strong forward order book, they are looking to strengthen their Planning capability to support long-term delivery across Scotland.

This is a perfect role for a P6 Planner in the Energy or Infrastructure sector looking for longevity, stability and internal progression within a technically driven engineering environment in the Glasgow region.

Day to Day duties will vary but could include:

• Take responsibility for coordinating all third-party constraints, design, procurement and construction information into the programme.
• Develop and maintain detailed Primavera P6 programmes across substation, M&E and electrical work packages.
• Support delivery across Balance of Plant works, primary and secondary installations and circuit breaker replacement works.
• Identify programme risks, critical path impacts and mitigation strategies, communicating key issues and solutions proactively to the project team.
• Produce progress reports, earned value data and programme updates in line with client and internal governance requirements.
• Facilitate and lead programme review sessions with stakeholders at all levels.
• Work collaboratively as part of a multi-functional project delivery team.
