Join Arabelle Solutions (EDF Group) - a global leader in steam turbine solutions powering low-carbon energy worldwide. With a legacy of engineering excellence and innovation, we design, manufacture, and service high-performance turbines worldwide. In India, our presence spans Sanand (Gujarat), Noida (Uttar Pradesh), and Bengaluru (Karnataka), where our teams drive advanced manufacturing, precision engineering, and cutting-edge project delivery-underpinned by our commitment to safety, integrity, and sustainability.
- Develop and maintain detailed project schedules (30 -36-month horizon) for new factory construction, factory bay expansions, and major line installations (HVAC, fabrication, machining, welding robotics, cranes, utilities)
- Break down project scope into WBS, activities, and milestones for civil, PEB, electrification, utilities, MEP interface, equipment foundations, erection, and commissioning.
- Align project schedule with capex plan, procurement timelines, machine delivery, and contractor mobilization, highlighting critical path and float
- Coordinate with project, production, maintenance, EHS, quality, procurement, and consultants to collect progress data and update schedules weekly.
- Monitor actual vs plan for key milestones (building readiness, utilities readiness, machine foundations, machine arrival, erection, poweron, trials, PPAP/qualification, rampup) and flag slippages with recovery plans.
- Integrate contractor schedules (civil, PEB, electrical, HVAC, utilities, automation vendors) into one master schedule and track their commitments.
- Support EHS planning by sequencing highrisk activities (working at height, heavy lifting, excavation, hot work, live utility interface) to minimize overlaps and enable safe execution.
- Prepare resource and capacity plans for site teams, contractors, and cranes/equipment needs, coordinating with stakeholders to avoid bottlenecks.
- Work with procurement and stores to align material availability (steel, cement, cables, panels, utility items, machines, tools, fixtures) with schedule requirements and highlight risks early.
- Maintain clear documentation of assumptions, constraints, interfaces with existing factory operations, and planned shutdowns or cutins
- Generate regular project reports and dashboards (milestone trackers, lookahead plans, Scurves, delay analysis) for plant leadership and global/corporate stakeholders.
- Support risk analysis by identifying schedule and interface risks, proposing mitigation actions, and tracking their implementation status.
- Contribute to standardization and continuous improvement of planning templates, checklists, and lessons learned for future projects.
- Lead project communication with plant leadership and global/corporate stakeholders, providing progress updates, escalation, and decision support.
- Establish and monitor project plans, RACI, and KPIs for construction, machinery erection, utilities, and commissioning, with regular reviews and risk mitigation.
- Drive greenfield and brownfield factory projects, including layout finalization, civil and PEB works, utilities, machinery installation, and production ramp up.
- Lead cross functional teams (projects, production, maintenance, EHS, quality, finance, consultants, and vendors) to achieve milestones within budget and timeline undefined.
