Either way, you• Read drawings carefully and ask when something doesn’t add up• Are accurate and own your work• Communicate clearly with clients, engineers and the floor• Turn up, follow through, and want to get better at this
What we offer• Structured training on software and pile cage scheduling from experienced schedulers• Tier 1 infrastructure, government and commercial projects across three states• A growing business with interstate expansion – real progression, not a promise• A small team with direct access to the Scheduling Manager and leadership
