Panning Engineer

We are looking for a Planning Engineer to support the planning, monitoring and control of civil engineering and infrastructure projects in Singapore. The role covers both tender planning and project execution , including programme development, progress monitoring, critical path analysis, delay identification and programme reporting. The successful candidate should have a good understanding of construction planning and sequencing for civil engineering projects and be proficient in Primavera P6 . Key Responsibilities 1. Programme Development & Planning • Prepare and develop tender, baseline, recovery and revised programmes using Primavera P6. • Develop Work Breakdown Structures (WBS), activity sequencing, logic links, calendars, milestones and critical paths. • Translate construction methodology, design, procurement, authority requirements and site activities into practical project programmes. • Ensure programmes are aligned with contractual milestones, project interfaces and completion requirements. • Support construction staging, phasing and sequencing for civil engineering and infrastructure works. 2. Project Planning & Coordination • Incorporate key project activities such as design development, authority approvals, utility works, traffic management, site access, temporary works, procurement, construction, testing and handover into project programmes. • Coordinate planning information with project teams, consultants, subcontractors and relevant stakeholders. • Work closely with construction, design, procurement and commercial teams to ensure programme information is accurate and achievable. 3. Progress Monitoring & Programme Control • Regularly update project programmes based on actual site progress. • Monitor planned versus actual progress and identify delays, programme deviations and potential impacts. • Analyse critical paths, float and key programme constraints. • Prepare look-ahead programmes and short-term planning schedules. • Identify programme risks and recommend appropriate mitigation or recovery measures. 4. Programme Reporting • Prepare weekly and monthly planning reports, progress updates, S-curves, milestone reports and programme dashboards. • Prepare manpower and productivity analyses and progress forecasts where required. • Provide programme analysis and planning information to Project Managers and management for decision-making. • Assist in evaluating alternative construction sequences, acceleration measures and resource requirements. 5. Delay & Contractual Support • Maintain programme records and supporting information for delay and Extension of Time (EOT) assessments. • Assist in assessing programme impacts arising from design changes, authority approvals, site access, utility interfaces, variations and other project events. • Support programme impact assessments and delay analysis where required. • Work with commercial and contract teams to maintain proper programme records for contractual and claims purposes. 6. Tender Planning Support • Prepare tender programmes for civil engineering and infrastructure projects. • Review tender documents, construction requirements and contractual milestones. • Develop practical construction sequences, activity durations and key milestones. • Identify programme risks, interfaces and constraints during tender preparation. • Support programme-related tender submissions and methodology planning. 7. Planning Improvement • Review subcontractor programmes and assess their alignment with the overall project programme. • Maintain planning templates, reporting formats and programme standards. • Contribute to improving planning and programme management practices across projects. Job Requirements Education • Degree or Diploma in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, Building, Project Management or a related discipline. • Relevant qualifications in planning, project controls or project management will be an advantage. Experience • Relevant experience in planning or programme management within civil engineering, infrastructure or construction projects. • Experience working on civil engineering or infrastructure projects in Singapore will be an advantage. • Experience in projects such as MRT, rail, tunnels, underground structures, roads, bridges, utilities, water infrastructure or other major civil works will be an advantage. • Experience in both tender planning and project execution planning is preferred. Technical Skills • Proficient in Oracle Primavera P6 , including: • Programme development and WBS; • Activity sequencing and logic relationships; • Baseline development and programme updating; • Critical Path Method (CPM) analysis; • Float and delay analysis; • Progress measurement and forecasting; • Programme comparison and variance analysis. • Proficient in Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint . • Knowledge of Microsoft Project, Power BI or other planning and data visualisation tools will be an advantage. • Able to understand construction drawings, methodology and construction sequences. • Good understanding of construction productivity, resource requirements and activity duration estimation. Knowledge • Understanding of civil engineering project planning and construction processes in Singapore. • Familiarity with design coordination, authority approvals, utility coordination, temporary works, construction, testing and handover. • Understanding of construction contracts and programme-related contractual requirements. • Knowledge of delay analysis and EOT principles will be an advantage. • Experience with public-sector infrastructure projects will be an advantage. Personal Competencies • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills. • Detail-oriented with good attention to accuracy. • Good communication and coordination skills. • Able to work effectively with multidisciplinary project teams. • Able to manage multiple priorities and meet tender and project deadlines. • Proact…
