Project Scheduler

About the role

Slifco Electric is a premier electrical contracting firm serving the Automotive, Heavy Industrial, and Mission Critical sectors. We specialize in both ground-up construction and major renovations, managing electrical packages ranging from small service work to multi-million-dollar installations. Slifco Electric is seeking a Project Scheduler to join our project management team and help drive the planning and scheduling of high-visibility projects. This role is ideal for a candidate with strong Primavera P6 skills, construction sequencing experience, and the ability to manage complex schedules independently. Located in New Florence, Missouri.

Responsibilities

• Build, maintain, and update CPM schedules in Primavera P6, ensuring clean logic (FS/SS/FF relationships, minimal improper lag) and structured WBS alignment with GC master schedules.
• Develop schedules that reflect field-driven construction sequencing, particularly for MEP, electrical, and heavy industrial scopes.
• Independently manage portions of project schedules, supporting GC-driven environments (experience with Walbridge, DPR, or similar is a plus).
• Run and interpret schedule analytics, including Longest Path, float analysis, and variance vs baseline.
• Support resource loading and manpower forecasting as needed.
• Prepare monthly schedule narratives, update summaries, and client-facing reports.
• Maintain structured schedule discipline: document constraints, protect schedule integrity, and avoid artificial float.

Requirements

• Advanced Primavera P6 proficiency (CPM required).
• Strong understanding of Critical Path vs Longest Path.
• Solid experience in construction sequencing, ideally in mission critical, industrial, or data center projects.
• Ability to independently own a project schedule and confidently present schedule logic in client/OAC meetings.
• Familiarity with resource loading and forecasting.
• Ability to produce clear, concise reporting and schedule narratives.
• 3+ years of construction scheduling experience.

Benefits

• Opportunity to build a scheduling function that operates independently and scales with high-visibility projects
• Exposure to large, complex projects and leading GC-driven construction environments
• Collaborative culture where your expertise is valued and your growth is supported
• Relocation Assistance Provided
