Job Description for Construction Scheduler

A construction scheduler plays a vital
role in a construction project, helping to
manage both time and resources to
ensure work is completed on time. The
job of a scheduler is to create
timetables for the entire project, which
includes determining the timing of tasks
and when specific materials will be
needed. Construction work is often
cyclical, and delays are normal, so a
scheduler must make sure projects are
fully staffed when appropriate and that
workers are able to access tools and
building materials. If an unanticipated
delay arises, the scheduler must
readjust timetables as much as possible

Construction schedulers usually work

directly under the project manager, and
consult with the manager about creating
schedules and managing delays. The
position may also include supervising an
assistant, who helps manage information
and perform duties as assigned by the
scheduler. In most cases, construction
schedulers have a high school diploma or
equivalent, though some may have
higher education. In this job, experience
and proven performance are frequently
more important than formal schooling.
Most schedulers have worked extensively
in the construction field and understand
the process of completing construction
work, as well as the nuances of
scheduling both workers and materials

Construction Scheduler Tasks

Manage budgets and oversee equipment and resource
requirements and usage.
Identify and anticipate schedule disparities and correct or
report to Project Management.
Coordinate with Project Management and Contractors to
create and maintain calendar for project implementation to
completion.
