Interface Planner
Working Location
Boden, Sweden
Monday to Friday, 8-hour days
Annually renewable contract, residential
About the Role
Work with a leading organisation in green steel production, supporting the construction of a new plant in Northern Sweden. This facility is designed to produce steel with significantly reduced CO2 emissions compared with conventional steel production.
The Interface Planner coordinates schedule-driven interfaces across areas and functions, ensuring that key dependencies, handovers, constraints and cross-area risks are visible and effectively governed. The role does not own the integrated project schedule; schedule control remains the responsibility of Project Controls.
Key Responsibilities
- Establish and maintain the schedule interface register and dependency log.
- Coordinate regular schedule interface routines with Project Controls, project areas, Construction and Commissioning.
- Identify cross-area milestone logic gaps, dependency risks and handover constraints.
- Ensure construction and commissioning interface needs are visible in planning routines.
- Translate interface risks into clear planning inputs, actions and escalation points.
- Support the 6-week lookahead interface process with dependency and milestone logic.
- Provide regular schedule-interface reporting to the Head of Interface Management and leadership.
- Ensure alignment between schedule interface actions and Project Controls governance.
Required Experience and Capabilities
- Experience in planning, project controls or schedule coordination in large industrial or construction projects.
- Strong understanding of schedule logic, dependencies, milestones and handovers.
- Ability to work with Primavera P6, MS Project or equivalent project planning tools, as applicable.
- Structured approach to dependency management and action tracking.
- Strong communication skills across planning and delivery teams.
Success Measures
- The schedule interface register is active and used by the project.
- Cross-area dependency risks are visible before they affect critical milestones.
- Project Controls receives clear, timely inputs from Interface Management.
- Schedule interface ownership is clear and avoids duplication with Project Controls.
