  • Coordinate with engineering, procurement, site execution, and commissioning teams to gather progress updates and maintain accurate, current schedules.

  • Prepare look-ahead schedules, catch-up plans, and recovery schedules; support project management in forecasting completion timelines and surfacing planning-related risks.

  • Generate periodic progress reports, dashboards, S-curves, and milestone tracking reports to support project review meetings and decision-making.

  • Maintain planning records, schedule revisions, and project control documentation in compliance with company procedures.
