Project Planner Offshore Energy

As a project planner you provide plan and project control support to the project management to successfully plan and progress the preparation and execution of the works. You will work with the project team, consortium partners and (sub)contractors and proactively advise on time, progress, resource management, opportunities and risks. It is a multifaceted, but above all a responsible role, in which your knowledge and ingenuity will be put to the successful completion of the project. Typical tasks and responsibilities comprise:

• Maintaining, update and progress the contract planning, considering all aspects of the work like logic, resource planning, cash flows and uncertainties;
• Create transparency and overview with clear visuals (by usage of gant charts, time-distance diagrams, storyboards and 4D-plans);
• Advise project management on strategic direction for the project and provide "what if scenarios" to consider if the situation is asking for it;
• Deliver reliable progress reports during the project duration;
• Initiate and lead brainstorm and workshop type meetings like planning reviews and rehearsals of concept (ROC).
