START Date:

London Underground Station Stabilisation Programme  - Lead Planner Stations

The remit of Stations Stabilisation Programme is to modernise 70 stations to make them safer and improve the customer experience. The actual works involve IT & Communications systems upgrades, improving energy efficiency and refurbishing the buildings while maintaining heritage features.

The role covers 4 stations and I am responsible for the schedules through the entire lifecycle from Feasibility through to Delivery. I write period reports on the status of the projects and attend the monthly period meetings with the Project Manager to update the directors on progress, any areas of concern and the solutions for them. The role also involves running a weekly planning meeting with the subcontractors to look at rolling 3 week plans to resolve any clashes before they are actually out on site and also look at any site specific requirements like permits that may need to be applied for in advance
