Full Details:

VINCI Building are currently looking to recruit a Senior Planner to support our teams and projects across our busy North East region.

As a Senior Planner, you will be providing robust planning support at pre-construction stages developing tender programmes for submission documents and possibly supporting in an advisory capacity our site operations teams as if need to. As a Planner you will be collaborating closely with our supply chain partners developing good quality logical programmes and associated work for projects on site.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead the preconstruction planning process, including project scheduling, resource planning, and identifying critical milestones
  • Develop detailed project programmes and schedules using industry-leading planning software
  • Identify and mitigate project risks, recommending contingency plans as needed
  • Collaborate with the design and estimating teams to ensure buildability and optimized construction sequences.
