The role of Industrial Scheduler at McGough is a critical position that supports the successful delivery of industrial construction projects. The Industrial Scheduler is tasked with maintaining and managing detailed project schedules, utilizing advanced scheduling methodologies such as critical path method (CPM) scheduling and the Last Planner System. These tools enable McGough to closely track and control project progress. The scheduler plays a key role in developing baseline schedules based on comprehensive analysis of project drawings, specifications, and construction documentation. Furthermore, the Industrial Scheduler collaborates closely with project managers, operations teams, subcontractors, owners, and senior leaders, building strong relationships to ensure coordinated effort and transparent communication throughout the project lifecycle.

This position requires expertise in construction scheduling software, particularly Primavera P6, allowing the scheduler to develop detailed timelines, assess manpower and cost loading of schedules, and perform analyses such as Time Impact Analysis to understand and mitigate project delays. The role also involves active participation in Lean construction events and collaborating with the Last Planner team to gather and update weekly work plans. The Industrial Scheduler helps develop "what if" scenarios to explore scheduling alternatives and optimize project sequencing, contributing to risk management and problem-solving efforts.

Strong communication skills, a proactive approach to problem resolution, and the ability to interface effectively with multiple stakeholders are essential. The company values candidates who bring at least one year of industrial construction experience along with knowledge of Lean construction practices and proficiency in project scheduling software.
