Gleeds is a leading global property and construction consultancy. Independent since 1875, we are proud to deliver award-winning projects around the world. We are a Great Place to Work certified employer, with our people at the heart of everything we do.

Climate change and Sustainability is at the top of our agenda; we have been established within the energy sector for the past 40 years and have achieved significant growth in the past years as we contribute to a sector that will have trillions of pounds of investment over the next decade. Our teams are at the forefront of the change, managing life changing projects in Solar, Hydrogen, Nuclear, Renewables and Defence, and we want you to be part of that too.

As the energy team continues to grow, we are looking to recruit motivated Planners to join us and play a critical part in the delivery of major, complex programmes in the nuclear sector.

Your day might involve:

• Develop and maintain integrated project and programme schedules covering engineering, procurement, manufacture, construction, installation, commissioning and handover.
• Establish the work breakdown structure, activity coding, logic, calendars, milestones and schedule baselines in accordance with programme controls requirements.
• Maintain the integrated master schedule and ensure alignment between programme, project, contract and discipline-level schedules.
• Identify and monitor critical path activities, near-critical paths, key interfaces, access constraints and schedule-driving deliverables.
• Track progress against baseline, including physical progress, earned value, forecast dates, productivity and schedule performance.
• Promote consistent planning standards, lessons learned, schedule assurance and continuous improvement across the programme.

However, in the consultancy world, no two days are the same! We are a flexible team that support each other's projects as well as getting involved with wider business activities and we believe that variety is key to your development.

Who we're looking for:

• Relevant experience in planning is required, with experience in nuclear or energy desirable but not essential.
• Experience with planning software such as Primavera P6 and Asta Power Project and Microsoft Power Project.
• Experience with mechanical, electrical, or other building services would be beneficial.
• Ideally, candidates will be HNC/HND or Degree qualified.
• Professional qualifications and/or membership of relevant Chartered Institute is highly desirable, but will be supported if not already attained.

What we can offer you:

• Clear opportunities to develop and grow your career through training and further qualifications
• Fantastic networking opportunities to grow your personal brand and expand your understanding of the industry
• Generous holiday allowance plus the option to purchase additional days through the holiday purchase scheme.
• Highly competitive salary and the opportunity to increase this through continuous reviews
• Employee Assistance Programme to ensure your health and personal well-being comes first
• Flexible working arrangements to ensure you have a healthy work-life balance
• Volunteering opportunities to engage with your local community or charitable organisations
• Unparalleled support from central teams and a company that is recognised as a gold standard investor in people
