Project Control Manager

The construction of a new rectifier station has now fully commenced. The contractor is on site, the IPM team is in place, and decisions have a direct impact on schedule, budget, and the environment. In this phase, you step in as Project Control Manager. You will monitor the project's control, identify bottlenecks in a timely manner, and ensure that the project continues in a controlled manner, so that the metros and trams continue to run reliably in the future.

What you will do

You will work on multiple projects simultaneously within the GRS program: the realization of rectifier stations for metro and trams. You will be responsible for the integral control of the project and monitor the coherence between schedule, budget, risks, quality, contractual agreements, and organization.

You will oversee the effects of choices on these control aspects and on the environment, gather information, and provide clear, reliable management information. With this, you will support the IPM team and the client in making substantiated decisions and ensure that the program and projects are managed in a controlled manner.

Your responsibilities include:

• You will draw up control plans and maintain oversight of GROKIT aspects.
• Daily, you will liaise with the contractor and, as the client, manage agreements and progress.
• Together with the project controller, you will translate financial developments into choices for the project.
• You will report to the project manager, team leader, and other stakeholders.
• Specialists from the control team will be supported, ensuring processes and procedures remain clear.
• You will coordinate the integral program schedule and monitor its alignment with the schedules of construction teams and sub-projects.
• You will manage the risk management process and monitor the coherence between risks, schedule, and costs.
• You will ensure an up-to-date financial overview (budget, commitments, forecast, and cash flow).
• You will prepare progress reports for the client and steering group.
