  • Support the alignment of project plans with broader group strategy and investment goals.

Performance Monitoring & Control

  • Track progress and performance through earned value management (EVM), KPIs, and reporting dashboards.
  • Conduct schedule risk analysis and recommend corrective actions where needed.
  • Lead delay analysis and extension of time (EOT) assessments.

Strategic Planning & Governance

  • Participate in annual and multi-year business planning exercises.
  • Coordinate across subsidiaries to consolidate plans and ensure synergy in timelines, resource allocation, and milestone alignment.
  • Contribute to feasibility assessments and strategic planning for new developments or ventures.

Stakeholder Coordination

  • Act as a liaison between internal stakeholders (project teams, finance, legal, executive office) and external consultants/contractors.
  • Support the leadership team with decision-making data, timelines, and risk assessments.

Reporting & Documentation

  • Prepare executive-level reports, planning documentation, and dashboards for board and senior management reviews.
  • Maintain full audit trails of planning decisions and changes to the baseline.

Key Requirements:

  • Bachelor's Degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Urban Planning, or related field.
  • Minimum 10 years of experience, with at least 5 years in a planning or project control leadership role.
  • Proven experience in large-scale real estate, construction, infrastructure, or multi-sector project portfolios.
  • Strong background in Primavera P6, MS Project, and planning software.
  • Familiarity with cost planning, contracts (FIDIC), and project governance is an advantage.
  • Experience working in or with family-owned businesses or private investment groups is preferred.
  • Strong communication and leadership skills, with the ability to manage multiple stakeholders.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
