About the Role

Lead integrated planning and project control functions across the tender and, subject to award, delivery phases of a major infrastructure program. You will turn the program into a practical management tool, connecting design, procurement, construction, commissioning, cost, risk and progress reporting. BMD is building a project leadership team for a major Tier 1 infrastructure opportunity in South Australia. The role will support a complex, multidisciplinary program with significant civil, structural and marine interfaces.

Your role will include:

• Lead the development and management of the integrated master program, baselines, staging plans and key milestones.
• Work with design, procurement, commercial and construction teams to establish logic, sequencing and realistic delivery assumptions.
• Monitor critical path, progress, productivity, schedule risk and emerging delay, and provide clear recovery options.
• Establish project-controls reporting, including progress measurement, look-ahead planning, dashboards and performance trends.
• Support tender methodology, program narratives, risk reviews and handover from tender into delivery.
• Lead planning and controls reviews with senior project stakeholders and improve planning capability across the team.
• Manage a team of planners and project controls specialists.

About You

To be successful, you will bring:

• Demonstrated experience as a Planning Manager on major Australian infrastructure projects, leading program development, controls, forecasting and performance reporting.
• Strong Primavera P6 capability and practical knowledge of baseline development, critical path analysis and progress measurement.
• Experience integrating civil, structural, building and MEP or similarly complex multidisciplinary work packages.
• A background with a Tier 1 or Tier 2 contractor, joint venture or comparable major-project delivery organisation.
• Strong communication skills and the credibility to test assumptions with engineering and construction leaders.
• Experience of operating at a senior management level within business or project environments, including the preparation, presentation and communication of reports to Senior Executives.
• Willingness to relocate to Adelaide.

Highly regarded:

• Experience across design and construct, ECI, alliance or other collaborative delivery environments.
• Exposure to schedule risk analysis, Earned Value Management, cost controls or digital project-controls reporting.
• Relevant qualification in engineering, construction management, project management or a related discipline.
