Guidehouse’s Capital Projects & Infrastructure team is seeking experienced professionals with engineering and infrastructure delivery backgrounds – particularly those who have deep expertise in project scheduling

Team members work across a range of industries and project types including energy, transportation, and heavy civil and support clients throughout the infrastructure lifecycle, from early strategy and planning through construction, operations, and maintenance

A strong candidate should demonstrate mastery of project scheduling and controls within the capital project lifecycle (planning through maintenance and operations), and have a proven record of success leading client engagements and project teams

We are looking for someone who is a self-starter, comfortable with ambiguity, and able to manage complex scheduling efforts across diverse infrastructure projects

You should be capable of mentoring junior staff, passionate about infrastructure delivery, and committed to driving results

Minimum Years of Experience: Five (5+)

Extensive experience developing and maintaining project schedules using Primavera P6 or similar

Experience leading client relationships, project teams, and internal staff

Strong written and verbal communication skills, including client presentations and stakeholder engagement

Ability and willingness to travel 50% or more, depending on client needs and project location

The successful candidate must not be subject to employment restrictions from a former employer (such as a non-compete) that would prevent the candidate from performing the job responsibilities as described

Due to nature of client engagements, US Citizenship restrictions may apply

Specifically, this individual should have a proven successful record of having led one or more of the following areas:

Project scheduling and schedule analytics, including development, maintenance, and analysis of complex project schedules

Advanced schedule modeling and diagnostics, e.g. critical path method (CPM), float analysis, schedule compression, time-cost trade-offs, and change impact assessments

Construction project controls, e.g. schedule control, earned value, change management

Performance metrics and project reporting, including dashboard development and KPI tracking

Stakeholder engagement and coordination, e.g. facilitating alignment across owners, regulators, contractors, and community partners

Project technology and systems, e.g. deployment and use of scheduling tools, PMIS platforms, and delay quantification tools

Candidates should have experience working in infrastructure-intensive industries (e.g., nuclear facilities, power or water utilities, transportation infrastructure, data centers, mining, and other infrastructure). Candidates should have interest and aptitude for helping client agencies solve real-world business challenges
