• Coordinate with BIM, VDC, and design teams to prepare models for visual planning.
• Perform constructability reviews and support risk identification through visual analysis.
• Ensure model quality and data consistency across project deliverables.

Project Delivery & Client Engagement
• Lead project discussions related to visual planning, logistics planning, and 4D implementation.
• Facilitate planning workshops with project teams, superintendents, trade partners, and clients.
• Translate planning and scheduling information into clear, visually compelling deliverables.
• Present visual planning outcomes and recommendations to internal and external stakeholders.

Team Leadership & Quality
• Mentor and support Visual Planners and team members on best practices, workflows, and deliverable quality.
• Review project deliverables for accuracy, consistency, and alignment with client requirements.
• Support development of standards, templates, and visual planning methodologies.
• Contribute to capability development and innovation initiatives within the Visual Planning group.

Innovation & Continuous Improvement
• Drive adoption of emerging technologies in visual planning and construction simulation.
• Explore integration of AI, automation, and production tracking workflows.
• Support development of repeatable solutions that improve efficiency and scalability of visual planning services.
