About the role

  • The successful candidate will set project controls standards and procedures, provide technical direction and mentorship to schedulers, and act as the primary controls interface with EPC contractors, project management, and Finance.
  • Govern the integrity of the WBS and coding structures over the project lifecycle - aligning them with ERP/accounting cost codes, and estimate structures, and controlling revisions as scope and contracting strategy evolve.
  • Direct cost control activities, including budget development and allocation, commitment and expenditure tracking, accruals, cash flow projections, and monthly cost forecasts at the control account and project level.

Responsibilities

  • Own earned value management for the project: establish control accounts and work packages against the WBS, define rules of credit and progress measurement methods, and calculate and analyze BCWS, BCWP, ACWP, CV, SV, EAC, ETC, and TCPI.
  • Build and maintain the project budget, track actuals against budget, and produce variance analyses that explain cost and schedule deviations, quantify their impact, and identify corrective actions.
  • Partner with Finance, Procurement, Engineering, Estimating, and Construction Management to align project reporting with capital budgets, purchase commitments, and accounting periods.
  • Support project close-out, including final cost reconciliation, schedule performance analysis, benchmarking, and capture of lessons learned and historical data for future estimates.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in construction management, engineering, business administration, or a related field.
  • Hands-on expertise in earned value management, including progress measurement, rules of credit, control account structures, and EAC/ETC forecasting.
  • Advanced proficiency in Primavera P6
  • experience with cost management systems (e.g., EcoSys, Oracle, SAP) and reporting tools such as Power BI or Tableau.
  • Strong working knowledge of change management, trend programs, and contingency and risk management practices.
  • Experience with quantitative schedule and cost risk analysis and what-if scenario modeling.
  • Experience reviewing contractor progress claims, invoices, and baseline schedules, and supporting negotiation of change orders and delay claims.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain cost and schedule performance to technical and non-technical stakeholders and to influence without direct authority.
  • Bachelor's degree in construction management, engineering, business administration, or a related field. Equivalent work experience may be considered.
  • Minimum of 8 years of project controls experience on construction, EPC, or large-scale industrial capital projects, including time in a lead or senior role directing controls scope and personnel.
  • Demonstrated ownership of cost control, budget tracking, and forecasting on projects of significant capital value, from baseline development through close-out.
  • Proven experience developing project KPIs and building performance reports and dashboards for project and executive audiences.
  • Advanced proficiency in Primavera P6; experience with cost management systems (e.g., EcoSys, Oracle, SAP) and reporting tools such as Power BI or Tableau.
  • Advanced Excel skills for cost modeling, data analysis, and reconciliation of large data sets.
  • Demonstrated experience structuring WBS, CBS, and OBS for large capital projects, including control account design, cost coding, and alignment of contractor and ERP reporting structures.

Nice to have

  • AACE (CCP, EVP, PSP) or PMI (PMP, PMI-SP) certification preferred.
  • Experience in battery, chemical processing, heavy manufacturing, or other complex industrial environments is a plus.

Compensation
