Job Description

The energy transition depends on projects being delivered with precision — on time, on budget, and with complete confidence in the data that drives decisions.

Key Responsibilities

Administer the platform: Maintain the Planisware environment for the North Europe region, including project structures, workflows, templates, and user roles — keeping configuration consistent with global standards.
Own data quality: Set and enforce data governance standards across the regional portfolio. Conduct regular audits, apply corrective actions, and ensure project data is accurate and audit-ready at all times.
Support project controls delivery: Work directly with project teams to support Earned Value Management (EVM), schedule management, RAID (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, Dependencies) tracking, and change control processes.
Manage the reporting rhythm: Oversee the regional reporting cadence, validate data ahead of executive reviews, and ensure outputs are accurate and distributed on schedule.
Build capability across the region: Act as the first point of contact for platform queries. Lead onboarding and training sessions to improve adoption and reduce recurring errors.
Drive continuous improvement: Identify workflow inefficiencies, contribute to the global Project Controls community of practice, and participate in the testing and rollout of platform updates.

Requirements

You are a detail-oriented project controls professional who is as comfortable working with data systems as you are working with people. You build trust through consistency, communicate clearly across technical and non-technical audiences, and take ownership of the processes others depend on.
Certification in Planisware or a comparable platform administration credential; familiarity with EVM and schedule management principles.
PRINCE2 Foundation, APM PMQ (Project Management Qualification), or equivalent project management certification.
Demonstrated ability to build consensus and guide adoption of new processes across teams without direct authority over those teams.
