Lead Project Controls Specialist, EPCActive

Redwood is localizing a global battery supply chain that seamlessly integrates recovery, reuse, and recycling — keeping critical minerals in circulation and driving the energy transition. Founded in 2017, we’re delivering low-cost and large-scale energy storage and producing battery materials in the U.

What you'll do

• Lead the project controls function for assigned capital projects, setting the: standards, procedures, and reporting cadence used across cost, schedule, estimating, and change management.

• Develop, structure, and maintain the project work breakdown structure (WBS),: along with the supporting cost breakdown structure (CBS) and organizational breakdown structure (OBS), so that scope, schedule activities, estimates, commitments, and actual costs all map to a single coding framework and roll up cleanly at any level of the project.

• Develop, baseline, and maintain the project KPI set: including CPI, SPI, productivity factors, commodity installation curves, safety and quality leading indicators, and milestone adherence — and track performance against targets throughout the project lifecycle.

• Own earned value management for the project: establish control accounts and work packages against the WBS, define rules of credit and progress measurement methods, and calculate and analyze BCWS, BCWP, ACWP, CV, SV, EAC, ETC, and TCPI.

• Govern the integrity of the WBS and coding structures over the project: lifecycle — aligning them with ERP/accounting cost codes, and estimate structures, and controlling revisions as scope and contracting strategy evolve.

• Direct cost control activities, including budget development and allocation,: commitment and expenditure tracking, accruals, cash flow projections, and monthly cost forecasts at the control account and project level.

What they're looking for

• Build and maintain the project budget, track actuals against budget, and: produce variance analyses that explain cost and schedule deviations, quantify their impact, and identify corrective actions.
• Manage the change control process: evaluating trends, change orders, and scope revisions for cost and schedule impact, maintaining the change log and contingency/management reserve registers, and ensuring approved changes are incorporated into the baseline.
• Develop, integrate, and maintain cost-loaded and resource-loaded schedules in: Primavera P6, including critical path analysis, schedule health checks, and progress updates from field and contractor data.
• Produce and present weekly and monthly project performance reports and: executive dashboards, translating cost, schedule, and earned value data into clear findings and recommendations for project and senior leadership.
