About the Opportunity

HeatherDaniel International (HDi) is representing a leading global construction consultancy in its search for Senior Schedulers / Project Controls Specialists on landmark data center programmes in Reno, Nevada.

Our client is a long-established, partner-led global consultancy delivering Owner’s Representation and programme advisory across major North American markets. These are client-facing advisory seats — not passive data-entry roles — on high-density, mission-critical capital builds.

Key Responsibilities

  • Critical Path Governance: Build, maintain and interrogate Primavera P6 schedules for mega-programme data center delivery.
  • Progress & Forensics: Drive progress measurement, delay analysis and recovery planning with contractors and design teams.
  • Controls Integration: Align schedule, cost and risk reporting for executive stakeholders.
  • Site & Remote Cadence: Support a Reno-based or rotating western-city delivery model.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Experience: 5–12 years in planning / scheduling / project controls. Profiles with 15–20+ years at Head of / Director level are typically too senior for these bench seats.
  • Software: Primavera P6 is the technical bar; EcoSys, MS Project or Power BI are advantageous.
  • Sector: Data center experience required for ≥1 seat; energy, nuclear, infrastructure or industrial backgrounds engaged.
  • Visa & Relocation: British (E-2), Australian (E-3) and Canadian (TN) candidates are strongly encouraged. Full relocation package and family status available.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Base Salary: $160,000 – $180,000.
  • Full benefits, relocation and family status.
  • Nevada’s zero state income tax and a growing Tahoe-Reno industrial / data center corridor.
