Job Description

Your Role

As Construction Manager, you will lead the planning, coordination and delivery of data centre construction projects across full builds, fit-outs, upgrades, landing stations and infrastructure works, from inception through handover to operations. You will be accountable for safe, high-quality, timely and cost-effective execution, while strengthening governance, digital reporting, standardisation and continuous improvement. Working collaboratively with country and market teams, Operations, customers, consultants, contractors and the wider Design, Engineering & Construction (DE&C) organisation, you will help deliver reliable and predictable capacity aligned with business priorities.

What you'll do

  • Champion a strong safety culture, working closely with Health and Safety leadership to enforce safe working practices and compliance across all project activities.
  • Lead projects from inception, design development and procurement through construction, closeout and handover, establishing clear goals, responsibilities, performance criteria, schedules and resource plans.
  • Own construction budgets, forecasts and cost controls; track expenditure, review payment applications and invoices, manage change requests, negotiate best value and identify cost-saving or value-engineering opportunities without compromising quality or functionality.
  • Manage project schedules, milestones and associated risks to provide reliable turnover dates; prepare mitigation plans, escalate impact events and report opportunities, risks and corrective actions.
  • Oversee contractors, subcontractors, consultants and suppliers, including selection, negotiation, contract administration and compliance with project requirements, specifications and documentation standards.
  • Implement quality-control processes, inspections and audits to ensure work meets design intent, regulatory requirements, industry standards and project specifications; resolve construction issues and deficiencies promptly.
  • Establish effective governance, communication and digital reporting across senior, country and project stakeholders, including progress, financial, safety, quality, risk, change and forecast reporting.
  • Act as a key point of contact for Operations and customers, manage expectations, facilitate project meetings and resolve issues or conflicts across cross-functional and matrixed teams.
  • Partner with Design, Project Controls and other business functions to apply standardised designs, templates and best practices, improve buying leverage, reduce design and operating costs, and deliver capacity aligned with business strategy.
  • Promote continuous improvement, teamwork and accountability, manage and motivate project teams where applicable, and support local teams when significant project risks arise.

What you'll need

  • Bachelor's degree in construction management, engineering or a related field, or equivalent relevant professional experience.
  • Extensive construction project management experience, including proven accountability as a construction or project manager/director; data centre or other mission-critical project experience is strongly preferred.
  • Strong knowledge of construction processes, methodologies and best practices, with familiarity in data centre design, infrastructure and mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) systems.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage project budgets, schedules, resources, contracts, change control, risk and multiple concurrent priorities while maintaining predictable delivery.
  • Solid project management capability, including experience with project management methodologies, continuous process improvement, metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs).
  • High digital competence, including proficiency with project management tools, digital reporting and the implementation of project digital strategies.
  • Working knowledge of relevant building codes, regulations, industry standards, safety requirements and quality-control practices.
  • Excellent communication, stakeholder management, influencing and negotiation skills, with the ability to work effectively across internal and external stakeholders in multicultural environments.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving and decision-making skills, with attention to detail, resilience, proactivity, flexibility and a customer-focused approach.
  • Excellent written and spoken English; proficiency in another relevant regional language is preferred.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
