Project Controls Specialist IV, Cost Analyst

The Work

BuildLACCD is the district's multi-billion-dollar bond construction program across nine colleges. As a Project Controls Specialist IV in the Program Management Office, you own the integrity of project budgets and forecasts across a portfolio of capital projects, so the numbers leadership relies on are accurate and defensible.

You sit at the center of cost. You run monthly Estimate at Completion reviews, take part in change management and risk workshops, and analyze variances. You work side by side with project managers, construction managers, and schedulers to catch overruns and trends early and to keep cost and schedule telling the same story.

Day to day you reconcile budgets against actuals, validate cost coding on change orders and amendments, manage Estimates to Complete, and build the reports and dashboards in e-Builder, Proliance, and DELTEK that the PMO and senior leadership use to make decisions.
