Full job description

We’re a Canadian-based integrated energy company headquartered in Calgary. We’re committed to maximizing value by developing our assets in a safe, responsible and cost-efficient manner, integrating sustainability considerations into our business plans.

We operate in Canada, the United States and the Asia Pacific region. Our operations include oil sands projects in northern Alberta, thermal and conventional crude oil and natural gas projects across Western Canada, crude oil production offshore Newfoundland and Labrador and natural gas and liquids production offshore China and Indonesia. Cenovus’s downstream operations include upgrading, refining and marketing operations in Canada and the United States.

Our shares trade under the symbol CVE and are listed on the Toronto and New York stock exchanges.

The Project Planner / Scheduler is responsible for developing, integrating, and maintaining detailed project schedules that ensure alignment across engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning functions. This role supports the standardization of planning and scheduling processes, provides analytical insights to project teams, and ensures consistent reporting of schedule performance and forecasting across all assets.

Key Responsibilities

Support planning and scheduling activities across multiple projects and operating assets, balancing competing priorities while maintaining reporting consistency.
Support and ensure standardization of planning and scheduling deliverables and processes across multiple assets to achieve efficiency and consistency within the group.
Develop and maintain Level I–IV integrated project schedules in collaboration with Project Management and Discipline Leads.
Integrate schedules from Engineering/Procurement (EP) firms, module yards, construction management teams (CMT), and commissioning (CSU) to align with project execution strategies.
Support quantity and manpower resource loading and forecasting for assigned schedules.
Review and validate schedule data to ensure logical sequencing, identifying gaps and dependencies that can potentially impact execution.
Manage schedule changes through the established change management system in accordance with Project Controls procedures.
Develop and maintain schedule basis documents for all assigned integrated schedules.
Perform critical path and variance analysis, identifying and communicating activities with potential schedule risks.
Conduct “what-if” scenarios to evaluate recovery and contingency plans.
Implement progress measurement tools and methodologies to monitor schedule performance.
Consolidate progress and performance data from EP contractors, module yards, and CMT for project-wide reporting.
Support CMT in monitoring contractor performance versus plan, identify deviations, and recommend corrective actions.
Monitor integrated schedule interfaces, highlight potential issues, and propose mitigation strategies.
Prepare and distribute schedule progress and performance reports (e.g., float analysis, variance, and KPI reports) and contribute to other project controls deliverables.
Participate in developing and improving planning/scheduling procedures, templates, and reporting standards within Primavera P6 and other tools.
Ensure resource-loaded schedules are aligned with site contractor progress reports (CPRs).

Key Deliverables

Fully integrated Level I–IV project schedules with logical sequencing across all execution phases.
Schedule Basis Memorandums outlining assumptions, constraints, and methodologies.
Bi-Weekly schedule updates, including variance analysis, progress curves, and resource histograms.
Critical Path and “what-if” analysis reports identifying potential risks and mitigation strategies.
Standardized progress and performance measurement tools and templates.
Consolidated project schedule reports for stakeholders (EP, Mod Yard, CMT, PMT).

Skilled in developing and maintaining progress dashboards, histograms, and performance indicators.
Experience in integrating schedules across multiple contractors and execution scopes.

Behavioral Competencies

Strong communication and collaboration skills with multidisciplinary teams.
Proactive problem-solving and critical thinking with a focus on continuous improvement.
Ability to work under pressure and manage multiple priorities.
High attention to detail and commitment to data integrity.
Demonstrated leadership and mentorship abilities within project controls teams.
