Job Description

We have an opening for a P6 Scheduler/Data Analyst to support the Strategic Deterrence (SD) Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) initiative within nuclear and high hazard facilities. With limited general direction, you will support scheduling and schedule analytics functions that reflect management priorities, including integrating multiple projects with competing resource requirements. You will support moderate-sized program scheduling assignments, monitor progress toward milestones and key events, and develop reports and metrics to enable proactive decision-making. This position supports the SD Integrated Master Scheduling Program within the Strategic Deterrence Directorate.

This position may offer a hybrid schedule, which includes the flexibility to work from home one or more days per week, after a probationary period. The specifics of the hybrid schedule, including the exact number of days required in the office and virtual work options, may vary based on the needs of the team and the organization.

This position will be filled at either level based on knowledge and related experience as assessed by the hiring team. Additional job responsibilities (outlined below) will be assigned if hired at the higher level.

In this role you will

• Develop, update, and maintain project and integrated schedules in Oracle Primavera P6, including WBS/activity setup, logic, durations, constraints, baselines, and progress updates.
• Build and maintain program and project schedules that include appropriate lead times, realistic durations, major milestones, and deliverables from internal customers and vendors.
• Coordinate with Integrated Project Teams to collect inputs and validate scope, sequencing, durations, resource impacts (as applicable), and milestone commitments.
• Perform schedule analytics, including critical path, float, variance, slippage trends, milestone health, and key driver analysis.
• Develop, run, and maintain metrics and alerts that identify activity slippage and emerging risks, enabling proactive decisions before milestone impacts occur.
• Conduct “what-if” scenario analysis to evaluate sequencing and duration changes, quantify impacts, and support recovery planning.
• Support re-planning and re-baselining when major schedule changes occur, including pre-rebaseline analysis and recommendations.
• Develop and maintain scheduling products such as templates, fragnets, schedule baselines, schedule updates, schedule analysis, and standard and ad hoc IMS reports.
• Integrate existing project schedules to produce roll-up summaries, dashboards, and reporting for program and project managers and leadership.
• Reconcile and validate data across inputs (project schedules, milestones, vendor deliverables), identify data quality issues, and drive closure with owners.
• Create and maintain repeatable data extracts, reporting templates, and improve reporting efficiency by reducing manual rework through standardization and automation where feasible.
• Perform other duties as assigned.

Additional Responsibilities at the TSS.4 Level

• Design, build, publish, and maintain dashboards that communicate schedule health, milestone performance, critical path drivers, forecast trends, and key risks to multiple stakeholder levels.
• Lead the implementation of scheduling functions to reflect management priorities.
• Guide other schedulers to ensure a consistent application of the IMS Program across laboratory directorates.
• Translate stakeholder questions into structured analyses, document assumptions and methodology, and communicate clear findings and actionable insights.
• Serve as the IMS Point of Contact including supervisory responsibilities and other duties as assigned.
