John Sisk and Son is recruiting a Planner for its Life Science team in Macclesfield. The post is full time and sits under planning and project controls, supporting the project’s lead senior planner on a framework of pharmaceutical works that ranges from minor upgrades to larger refurbishments and new builds.
The planner handles site planning and reporting, preparing internal and external progress reports and project dashboards backed by trade performance data, tender event schedules and design deliverable updates. The work includes baselining programmes, rescheduling progress and analysing the critical path and near-critical float paths under an NEC contract.

The role also produces planned against actual S-curves, short-term look-ahead programmes and KPI tracking schedules, manages programme submissions from subcontractors, and raises risks with possible mitigation for the project team to agree.
It supports baseline programmes covering:
