What we need

Symbotic is seeking a New Grad- Project Scheduler to join our Project Scheduling team within our Program Management organization.

What we do

The Project Scheduling team is a six-person team that supports projects from pre-installation through completion. Schedulers partner closely with onsite project managers and site teams to understand project progress, evaluate schedule implications, and help keep projects moving toward key milestones.

What you'll do

• Maintain and manage project schedules from pre-installation through project completion.

• Track project milestones, milestone paths, and critical paths across assigned sites.

• Analyze schedule trends to identify potential delays, risks, and impacts rather than simply maintaining schedule data.

• Communicate schedule performance, risks, and delays directly to onsite project managers and other site stakeholders.

• Meet with individual site teams to understand project progress and translate updates into schedule implications.

• Use Smartsheet as a key communication tool and develop proficiency with Microsoft Project.

• Travel up to 25% for site exposure and scheduler training, including approximately one to two site trips during the first year and biannual scheduler workshops.

What you'll need

• Bachelor's degree in construction management, or a related field.

• Strong analytical skills with the ability to identify trends, risks, and potential schedule impacts.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the confidence to communicate schedule delays and risks directly to project stakeholders.

• Experience in Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, or other project scheduling tools.

• Ability to learn project and site components through hands-on exposure and apply that knowledge to schedule management.

Our Environment

• Up to 25% of travel may be required. Employees must have a valid driver's license and the ability to drive and/or fly to client locations and company HQ.

• Employees may be required to use a personal credit card for business travel expenses, which are reimbursed based on the program guidelines. Eligible employees may receive a corporate credit card based on role and travel requirements, but a personal credit card may be needed during onboarding until the corporate card is issued.
