Planners
Location: Glasgow
We’re looking for three Planners to join our team supporting the Clyde Framework.
About The Role
As a Planner, you will support both tender and onsite delivery teams by producing logic‑linked programmes, identifying and communicating risk, and ensuring planning information is accessible and meaningful for all project stakeholders.
You will work closely with the Senior Planner / Planning Manager during the tender stage and support the Construction Manager throughout delivery — helping teams make confident, data‑driven decisions that keep projects on track.
What You’ll Do
Tender Stage
- Develop fully logic‑linked design, procurement and construction tender programmes.
- Produce or support the production of tender logistics plans, method statements and temporary works (including scaffold) schedules.
- Engage with the supply chain and project teams to refine programme assumptions and identify optimal delivery methods.
- Produce all tender deliverables on time in line with the Tender Activity Programme (TAP).
- Create or lead the production of logistics and phasing plans.
- Identify programme risks and add them to the risk register with clear communication.
- Attend tender meetings, including settlement where required.
Construction Stage
- Assist project managers with onsite planning, reporting and programme controls.
- Develop target and master programmes for small to medium projects, fully logic‑linked to the baseline.
- Ensure programmes reflect agreed construction methods in collaboration with operations support teams.
- Where no site planner is present, train project managers to progress programmes and provide periodic rescheduling support.
