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.

About You

You are a detail-oriented project planning professional with a strong background in schedule development and control within complex, multi-discipline project environments.

Required

  • Bachelor of Engineering (EEE/Mech) from an accredited College or University
  • 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

Preferred

  • Prior experience on large-scale EPC or energy sector projects across the full engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning lifecycle
  • Ability to manage multiple concurrent project schedules in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
