The Project Scheduler will serve as a vital member of the County’s Program Management Office (PMO), providing advanced scheduling expertise that supports project delivery, program‑level integration, and executive‑level reporting.

• Integrate all project schedules into a master program schedule aligned across dependencies, milestones, resources, and cash flow projections.
• Support schedule components of the Program Management Plan (PgMP) and Project Management Plan (PMP) templates.
• Conduct scheduled health checks, variance analysis, trend forecasting, and exception reporting.
• Identify schedule risks and recommend corrective actions to project teams and leadership.
• Prepare schedule inputs for dashboards, monthly reports, leadership briefings, and Board of Supervisors reporting.
• Maintain Project Management Status Reports and support continuous improvement in reporting quality.
• Assist with the development and implementation of schedule‑related SOPs, including integrated scheduling, change control, configuration management, and risk management.
• Provide schedule‑based cash flow projections and coordinate with Finance and OMB on program expenditure forecasting.
• Support budget development, cost estimating efforts, and capital program planning.
• Serve as an embedded consultant, maintaining confidentiality, transparency in level of effort, and compliance with County governance requirements.

Education & Certifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, construction management, project management, or related field (preferred).
• Scheduling certifications such as PMI SP or AACE PSP in Virginia (preferred).

Experience:

• Proven experience developing and managing schedules for large‑scale capital programs—ideally in government, transportation, or public infrastructure.
• Minimum 10 years’ experience with portfolio‑level schedule integration and project controls systems.
• Familiarity with capital project funding, procurement, and lifecycle processes.
• PMO experience preferred.

Technical Skills:

• Proficiency with Primavera P6, Microsoft Project, and/or equivalent tools.
