Phase Consulting is looking for a Senior Project Planner for our client, a leading global mining company. The role is based at the company's operation in remote British Columbia.

- Produce weekly and monthly progress reports, look-aheads and dashboards for site and corporate leaders
- Work closely with project controls, cost, construction and operations teams to keep schedule and cost in line
- Keep the schedule accurate and disciplined as scope changes
What you bring

- Mining and/or process plant experience strongly preferred
- Proven hands-on experience with progress measurement and earned value
- Advanced skills in Primavera P6 (other tools are a plus)
- Owner's-side experience is a strong asset, especially managing EPCM or contractor schedules
- Comfortable living and working at a very remote camp-based site for a long-term commitment
- Clear communicator who can present schedule insights to technical and executive audiences
Why this role
- Long-term contract with 4+ years of stable work
- The chance to shape project controls on a major Canadian mining project
- Working with our client, a leading global mining company
