Junior Planning Engineer Primavera P6 (Oil & Gas)

About Dolphin

Dolphin Oilfield Equipment Services is an Abu Dhabi (Mussafah) industrial services company serving ADNOC group companies, EGA, Borouge and other oil & gas, power and industrial clients across the UAE. We manufacture, service and retube heat exchangers, execute EPC-stage site works, and deliver shutdown and turnaround maintenance campaigns onshore and offshore.

The Role

We are hiring a Junior Planning Engineer to run project scheduling in Primavera P6: build schedules with our engineers, update them weekly with real site progress, and produce the S-curves and progress reports our projects and invoicing run on. You will be trained inside our planning system and supported by senior engineers — we expect P6 capability and discipline, not ten years of experience.

What You Will Do

•   Build and maintain project schedules in Primavera P6 (WBS, logic, calendars, baselines) from engineer inputs.

•   Run the weekly progress-update cycle across live projects; collect progress data from site engineers.

•   Produce S-curves, manpower histograms and progress measurement supporting client reports and invoicing.

•   Resource-load schedules and issue two-week look-aheads to site teams.

•   Flag slippage against baseline early with clear variance notes.

•   Support tender-stage schedules with our estimation team.

•   Maintain planning templates and the schedule library.

What We Are Looking For

•   B.Eng. or engineering diploma (mechanical, industrial or civil preferred).

•   Hands-on Primavera P6 capability — training certificate plus real use, 1–3 years exposure.

•   Solid understanding of WBS, activity logic, baselines and percent-complete methods.

•   Competent Excel; English adequate for progress reporting.

Preferred / a plus:

•   Oil & gas, EPC or construction exposure; shutdown/turnaround environment.

•   MS Project, earned-value basics, Power BI.

What We Offer

•   A real planning desk with responsibility from week one — your schedules drive live ADNOC-ecosystem projects, not filing.

•   Training and direct mentoring by senior engineers and management; a defined growth path in planning and estimation.

•   Competitive salary and benefits per UAE labour law; immediate start preferred.

Working Pattern — Read Before Applying

Office-based in Mussafah with a fixed weekly schedule-update rhythm; site visits for progress verification; busier during shutdown seasons. Not a remote role.
