Job summary:


The Submarine Delivery Agency (SDA) is a part of the Ministry of Defence responsible for the procurement, in-service support, and disposal of the UK's nuclear submarines.

Our work is of unparalleled strategic importance nationally and internationally, ensuring the security of the UK's continuous at-sea nuclear deterrent, and delivering some of the most technically complex programmes in defence.

At the SDA, it's our people that make us great. We believe that everyone should feel comfortable to be themselves and be supported to do their best work.

As part of a diverse and inclusive workforce, our team will find a community to belong to - whether that's alongside project teams with a shared vision or as part of an employee network of like-minded individuals.

We believe that, by celebrating different backgrounds and different perspectives, together we'll achieve the extraordinary.

What does Planning and Scheduling mean to us at the SDA?


Planning is determining the overall objectives of the Project and associated strategy for delivery along with 'what' is to be produced, 'who' will undertake the work, and 'how' the project will be achieved.

Scheduling involves the 'when', 'how long', and the 'sequence'. The Project Scheduler has the responsibility for preparing the project schedule, monitoring progress, and gaining inputs from all stakeholders.

This position is advertised at 37 hours per week.

Job description:


The lead planning and scheduling roles will be within the newly formed Schedule Management Group (SMG) which has been established to deliver standardised, coherent and cogent project baseline and P3M data outputs across the SDA.

The SMG provides technical expertise and products to the SDA delivery and enabling teams, allowing us to strengthen how we deliver planning and scheduling analytics across the Agency, implement consistent ways of working, processes and technology, and enhance our Management Information to enable effective and efficient decision making.

Through the SMG we are providing a functional home for all 55 of our planners and schedulers to collaborate, feel supported and thrive.


This is a varied, exciting, and challenging role which will see you leading and guiding a technical team, engaging with a wide range of stakeholders and being responsible for managing and undertaking planning and scheduling activity for a number of high complexity projects.


Each lead role will be responsible for providing strategic direction and managing a team to deliver planning and scheduling for each of our directorates, e.g.

Acquisition, Support etc.

This will include activities such as:

  • Leading planning / scheduling effort for new baselines, including running workshops and coordinating efforts
  • Lead schedulers to conduct analysis of supplier schedules and processes and integrate activities into the SDA baseline
  • Liaise with suppliers to establish robust interface and reporting requirements to support integration into the SDA schedules
  • Interrogate supplier data to understand status and forecast for remaining work and provide analysis and insight to support the assessment of supplier's performance
  • Manage change control and drive project / programme control across all phases of the CADMID cycle
  • Provide monthly reporting and analysis including critical path, milestones, resourcing, EVM to ensure quality MI at Governance meetings and stakeholder understanding
  • Supervise and guide schedule risk analysis to inform stakeholders
  • Understand the priority, maturity and demand for planning and scheduling tasks and resource to support the SMG Governance and appropriate deployment of SQEP
  • Primary delivery manager duties for junior members of the team


You will be based at Abbey Wood (ABW) Bristol and depending on tasks could have opportunities to travel to our Devonport, Clyde and Barrow-in-Furness sites.

We operate a hybrid working environment and the expectation is that you will attend Abbey Wood at minimum of twice a week, according to business need.

Initially, you may be expected to attend more frequently to familiarise yourselves with the site, the team and the position you will be working on in more detail.

Your responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

  • Leading the planning and scheduling discipline in a Project and Programme e
