EllisDon is hiring a Planning and Scheduling Coordinator in Edmonton, Alberta, an entry route into construction programming for someone with around two years of scheduling behind them. The coordinator helps to build critical path method baseline schedules with full logic, and takes part in the planning sessions held while EllisDon is pursuing work, including the preparation of schedule responses to requests for proposal.

Once a project is under way, the role joins in assessing construction progress, runs the regular fortnightly or monthly updates and helps to prepare the reports used to judge the health of each schedule. A project schedule log is kept up to date throughout. Two further duties will interest anyone heading towards delay work.

The coordinator contributes to a database of construction productivity rates,



procurement durations, lead times and project risk items, and helps to identify unplanned events, such as changes and unforeseen conditions, and to bring their effect into the schedule.

The posting asks for two years of construction scheduling experience or an equivalent combination of technical training and experience, familiarity with lump sum, design and build, construction management and unit price delivery, and working knowledge of Primavera P6, Microsoft Project or similar software. The ability to coordinate several schedules and resolve conflicts between them under pressure is also sought.
