Job description

Data Centre Project Manager | Mandarin or Korean Speaking | Daily rate Contract | Anywhere in Australia | 12 months intially

I am working on a Data Centre Project Manager contract opportunity, open to an experienced DC PM based anywhere in Australia who speaks fluent Mandarin or Korean.

This opportunity sits on the deployment side for a global technology business, so you would be taking customer data centres through modernisation and landing new compute infrastructure in them, owning it from planning through to handover. You’ll be delivering AI and HPC infrastructure for customers, working with some of the most in-demand technology in the market.

What you would be doing

• Work directly with customers, internal teams and delivery partners, including running regular calls
• Get across the technical architecture at both a high and low level, and drive decisions on the right solution
• Develop and present technical solutions to customers
• Make sure project requirements are delivered to standard and on time
• Report and elevate issues quickly and to the right people
• Keep customers across project changes and releases
• Document technical and operational procedures clearly

What I am looking for

• 5+ years in project delivery management, with in-depth knowledge of data centre environments, servers and network equipment
• 5+ years providing field services and/or customer support for hardware and software products
• PMP certification
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering or Computer Science, or equivalent experience

You will also bring

• Experience leading global projects and diverse functional teams
• Strong communication, presentation and organisational skills, and the confidence to work directly with customers with limited supervision

AI and HPC experience is a bonus, not essential.

Please note this role involves occasional travel to data centres in Australia, and irregular hours may be needed from time to time.
