Jobbeschreibung

Ready to lead major data centre projects while helping build the next chapter of a growing delivery business?

This is a rare opportunity to combine the excitement of a flagship project with the autonomy to shape something bigger. As Regional Delivery Lead, you will initially play a key leadership role on a major data centre project in Austria, taking ownership of delivery across a complex mission‑critical environment and working alongside some of the industry's most experienced professionals. From day one, you'll be trusted to drive project performance, build strong stakeholder relationships and ensure successful outcomes across every stage of the project lifecycle.

However, the real opportunity extends far beyond a single project. As Black & White Engineering continues to expand its delivery capability across Europe, this position is expected to evolve into a broader regional role with involvement in projects across Germany, Switzerland, Norway and other key European markets. You'll have the opportunity to influence how projects are delivered, support the development of delivery standards and best practices, and play an integral role in establishing a growing regional presence.

Unlike many leadership positions where structures, processes and responsibilities are already firmly established, this role offers a genuine blank canvas. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to contribute ideas, shape strategy, help develop teams and become a key figure in the future growth of the business. It is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys solving complex challenges, building strong client relationships and creating lasting impact rather than simply maintaining the status quo.

Whether your background is in hyperscale data centres, mission‑critical infrastructure or large‑scale engineering and construction programmes, this role offers the chance to work on some of Europe's most exciting projects while building a long‑term leadership career within one of the industry's fastest‑growing consultancies.

What's In It For You

Lead Major Mission-Critical Projects

You'll play a key leadership role on a significant data centre project in Austria, taking ownership of delivery from planning and design through construction, commissioning and client handover. This is a highly visible opportunity to influence outcomes on projects that support some of the world's largest digital infrastructure providers.

Regional Exposure & International Influence

While the role begins on a major project in Austria, the longer‑term scope extends across Germany, Switzerland, Norway and other developing markets throughout Europe. You'll gain exposure to a diverse range of clients, project environments and regulatory landscapes while contributing to some of the most advanced data centre developments in the region.

Build Something New

This is not a role where every process has already been defined. You'll join at the beginning of a new regional focus area with the opportunity to influence delivery standards, shape best practice, strengthen client relationships and help build future capability. For someone who enjoys creating, improving and leading, there is genuine scope to leave a lasting mark on the business.

Leadership & Team Development

You’ll work alongside talented project managers, engineers and delivery professionals, helping to develop teams while promoting a culture of accountability, collaboration and continuous improvement. As the regional portfolio grows, there will be opportunities to broaden your leadership responsibilities.

Technical & Commercial Ownership

You’ll oversee complex mission‑critical projects involving multidisciplinary engineering, construction and commissioning teams. In addition to successful project delivery, you’ll contribute to programme governance, commercial performance, risk management and strategic decision‑making across multiple projects.

Long-Term Career Growth

As one of the fastest‑growing consultancies in the data centre industry, Black & White Engineering provides genuine opportunities for progression. This role offers a platform for individuals seeking to develop towards senior regional delivery, operations or business leadership positions in the future.

• Proven ability to lead complex project delivery programmes across multiple locations and countries.
• Strong understanding of the full project lifecycle including planning, procurement, construction, commissioning and operational handover.
• Experience managing multidisciplinary teams, senior stakeholders and client relationships.
• Knowledge of programme governance, risk management, change control and commercial project management.
• Degree qualified in Engineering, Construction Management, Project Management or a related discipline, with professional certifications such as PMP, PRINCE2 or equivalent being advantageous.
• Experience within hyperscale data centres or mission‑critical environments would be highly desirable.

In addition, you will be joining a community that focuses on learning and development through regular lunch and learn sessions, investment in accredited professional courses or educational programmes. You can set the pace for your professional development, and whatever path you choose, you will receive relevant support.
