About the Role

You'll find and secure the land and power that DayOne's next Asia-Pacific campuses will be built on. Power is the tightest constraint in most of the region's markets, so the work starts with utilities, grid capacity and government allocation, and works back to sites that can be developed on time and on budget. You'll originate sites,lead due diligence and negotiations, and take each opportunity to investment committee with a clear recommendation. You'll work closely with Development, Legal, Finance and Commercial so that every site you secure matches what hyperscale customers need.

Pipeline and Handover

• Build and manage a pipeline of sites by stage, megawatts and timing, aligned with the capacity plan and customer demand.
• Hand secured sites to Development and Delivery with commitments, conditions and risks documented.
• Work with Commercial and Strategic Business Development so sites match hyperscaler requirements, and join customer discussions where land and power are deciding factors.
