Project Scheduler
Location: Bristol
Security Clearance: SC eligible (must have the right to work in the UK)
Contract Type: Permanent
About the Role:
We’re looking for a driven and detail-oriented Project Scheduler to join our Bristol-based team. You’ll play a key role in developing, integrating, and maintaining project schedules across a dynamic portfolio. If you thrive on structure, love working with people, and have a knack for balancing timelines, risks, and resources — we’d love to hear from you.
This is a customer-facing role where your ability to communicate clearly and influence stakeholders will be just as important as your technical skills.
What You’ll Be Doing:
* Develop, maintain, and manage resourced, time-phased project schedules across multiple projects
* Create and maintain risk-adjusted schedules and conduct Schedule Risk Analysis (SRA)
* Support Earned Value Management (EVM) by integrating cost, schedule, and scope data
* Track performance, identify delays or deviations, and develop mitigation plans
* Facilitate baseline change control and produce “what-if” scenarios
* Work closely with project managers, technical leads, and external stakeholders to ensure delivery against schedule
* Integrate Agile and Waterfall plans into overarching programme schedules
* Generate regular reports and dashboards to support visibility, control, and decision-making
What We’re Looking For:
* Practical knowledge of Schedule Risk Analysis, Earned Value Analysis, and baseline change control
* Proficiency with scheduling tools such as Primavera P6, MS Project, and/or Asta Powerproject
* Strong understanding of project lifecycle, resource planning, and cost estimation
* Excellent interpersonal and communication skills – able to work with stakeholders at all levels
* Highly organised, adaptable, and confident managing multiple priorities under pressure
* SC Clearance eligible (or currently cleared) and right to work in the UK
Desirable Qualifications:
* Certifications such as PMP, PMI-SP, PRINCE2, or similar
* Experience working in customer-facing environments or with government/regulated clients
Why Join Us?
* Be part of a collaborative, high-performing PMO team
* Work on diverse and impactful projects
* Access to career development and training
* Competitive salary and benefits package
