Cost Controller

Assignment Description

This position supports the Cost Controller function on the assigned Project. Cost control includes development of the Project’s original budgets, using the final cost estimates time-phased against the schedule baseline, maintenance of the control budget, estimation of accruals, tracking of commitments, and monitoring the impacts of changes and performance trends to forecast the project expenditure over time, ultimately resulting in corrective or preventative actions to ensure on-budget delivery of the project’s objectives. The cost control function manages large volumes of data, continuously validating contractual compliance, rigorously applying escalation forecasts and foreign exchange considerations. The function is responsible for structured and reliable reporting of Project cost to the project team and other internal functions and external stakeholders and ensures complete management of total project cost in accordance with corporate accounting requirements and other applicable standards. Cost may be managed within one or more implementation Contractors but the Albemarle team is responsible for the aggregation and reporting of the project cost and the management of contingency drawdown and will maintain necessary records to explain actual cost or forecast variances versus the original budget.
