Summary
Working under the direct supervision of the Transmission Construction Manager, the Project Planning Coordinator is responsible for developing and maintaining project construction schedules, developing and revising Construction Sequence Documents, coordinating construction efforts in the field among various entities, updating construction status information, and communicating as needed on overall project status with multiple parties. The assigned projects are in various stages of activity and are occurring simultaneously in most instances.

The Project Planning Coordinator is expected to work from the office as well as the field, as required, to fulfill the duties and responsibilities of the role.

The Transmission Construction Coordinator is expected, with appropriate experience and time in the job, to act as backup to the Transmission Construction Manager during their absence.
