Track development and regulatory milestones, ensuring construction-phase dependencies are identified and flagged early
Project Controls & Risk Management
Maintain project schedules, cost benchmarks, and cashflow models in support of project sanction decisions
Own and maintain the E&C risk register for hub projects, tracking scope, schedule, cost, and constructability risks across active work streams
Identify and escalate when Development-driven scope changes introduce E&C cost or schedule risk
Support risk-adjusted cost positioning and contingency analysis for leadership reporting
Manage monthly and quarterly progress reporting to the Owner, including schedule status, cost performance, risk exposure, and milestone tracking — ensuring reporting is accurate, timely, and decision-ready
Develop and maintain one-page project dashboards and supporting materials for presentations, covering scope, budget, equipment status, interconnection, permitting, and decisions needed
Prepare and maintain project status packages suitable for executive-level review, ensuring leadership has clear visibility into emerging risks, mitigation actions, and residual exposure
Procurement & Integrated Supply Chain Coordination
Coordinate with Integrated Supply Chain on RFQ inputs, technical scope review, and bid evaluation for major equipment and EPC/EPCM scopes
Support cost comparison analysis between E&C estimates and contractor proposals, flagging material variances as scope alignment risks
Track long-lead equipment status (combustion turbines, HRSGs, transformers, switchgear) and flag supply chain constraints in a capacity-constrained OEM market
What You'll Need
Preferred Requirements:
Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or related field
5–10 years of experience in energy project development or large capital construction

Experience with combined cycle or simple cycle gas development projects
Familiarity with interconnection processes and associated E&C scope implications
Experience coordinating long-lead equipment procurement in constrained OEM markets
Exposure to balance-of-plant scopes including switchyard, transmission, and civil/site infrastructure
What Sets You Apart
You own your scope — cost, schedule, and risk — without being asked twice
You bring structure to ambiguous, early-stage environments and make the team around you more effective
You communicate risk clearly and early, before it becomes a problem
You produce Owner-ready reporting that is accurate, decision-focused, and never late
You're as comfortable in a contractor bid review as you are in a leadership status update
