Job Description Summary

The energy transition needs people who can see the full picture — and keep complex, multi-phase projects on track from the first milestone to the final handover. As a Project Planner at GE Vernova, you will be at the heart of project execution across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, turning project scope into structured schedules that engineering, procurement, and construction teams can actually work to. Your planning keeps projects moving, risks visible, and decisions well-informed.

Job Description

Key Responsibilities

Develop and maintain detailed project schedules aligned with scope, milestones, and contractual requirements, including baseline schedules, work breakdown structures (WBS), activity sequencing, and resource-loaded plans.
Monitor project progress against planned schedules, identify critical path impacts and schedule slippages, and recommend corrective and recovery actions.
Coordinate with engineering, procurement, site execution, and commissioning teams to gather progress updates and maintain accurate, current schedules.
Prepare look-ahead schedules, catch-up plans, and recovery schedules; support project management in forecasting completion timelines and surfacing planning-related risks.
Generate periodic progress reports, dashboards, S-curves, and milestone tracking reports to support project review meetings and decision-making.
Maintain planning records, schedule revisions, and project control documentation in compliance with company procedures.

10+ years of experience in project planning, scheduling, and progress monitoring within industrial, EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction), energy, or infrastructure environments
Proficiency in Primavera P6 and/or MS Project
Demonstrated ability to develop, interpret, and analyze project schedules, critical paths, and progress trends
Strong analytical and reporting skills with experience producing S-curves, dashboards, and milestone reports
