About the job

A problem isn’t truly solved until it’s solved for all. That’s why Googlers build products that help create opportunities for everyone, whether down the street or across the globe. As a Program Manager at Google, you’ll lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish — working with stakeholders to plan requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It's your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.

In this role, you will be responsible for the design, development, and deployment of Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) programs and initiatives across a defined area. You will work directly with Google Data Center partners, general contractors, electrical/mechanical trades and organizations, key integrators, fabricators, and commissioning agents to improve the EHS programs and performance on our projects. You will engage in pre‑qualification evaluations of potential vendors, update the project manual, and communicate EHS expectations. You will be involved in planning, risk mitigation, and on‑time delivery. You will be responsible for establishing and tracking a set of performance metrics, developing and implementing best practices including lessons learned, and regularly reporting out to stakeholders to help the organization scale efficiently.

The Data Center team designs and operates some of the most sophisticated electrical and HVAC systems in the world. We are an upbeat, creative, team‑oriented group of engineers committed to building and operating powerful data centers.

Responsibilities

• Lead the development and ownership of the EHS program for the area construction, oversight, and data collection.
• Ensure that contractors deliver on program safety performance expectations and agreement requirements, providing timely solutions to issues.
• Monitor, advise, and assist the construction project teams to protect people, environment, and ensure compliance.
• Drive a culture that embraces a continuous learning approach and aligns with organizational strategies including goals, and objectives.
• Liaise with the wider construction EHS team to ensure full implementation of best practices, timely progress reporting, capture and analysis of trends and data, and risk mitigation to an acceptable level, ensuring the operational capacity of a live Data Center is not compromised.
