Job description

National General Contractor | Mission Critical Data Centers

Role: Senior Project Manager

We are partnered with a nationally recognized General Contractor with a rapidly expanding Data Center division, delivering some of the most high-profile data center projects across the United States.

This is an opportunity for an experienced Senior Project Manager to take a leading role in the delivery of hyperscale and mission-critical data center facilities, working alongside some of the industry's most sophisticated owners, designers, consultants and trade partners.

The Role:

As Project Manager, you will have significant responsibility for the successful delivery of large-scale data center projects from preconstruction through commissioning and turnover.

You will lead project teams, manage commercial and technical risk, and ensure projects are delivered safely, on schedule, within budget and to the highest standards of quality.

What Makes This Different:

Data center construction isn't traditional commercial construction.

These facilities operate around zero tolerance for failure, with complex power, cooling, controls and redundancy requirements and aggressive delivery schedules. The successful Project Manager will understand how to coordinate thousands of individual activities while maintaining absolute focus on safety, quality, schedule and operational readiness.

You will be working on projects where schedule certainty matters, commissioning is critical and the MEP systems are often the heart of the building.

This is an environment suited to someone who enjoys solving complex problems, leading large teams and operating at the highest level of construction management.

What We're Looking For

• Data center / mission-critical experience required.
• A mix of industrial, mission-critical and data center construction is also preferable.
• Proven experience managing major construction projects as a Project Manager.
• General Contractor/Subcontractors experience strongly preferred.
• Understanding of MEP systems and construction coordination.
• Experience managing major subcontractors and multi-disciplinary project teams.
• Experience with commissioning, turnover and early operational requirements.
• Experience with platforms such as Procore, Primavera P6 and Microsoft Office is highly desirable.

Travel Required!

Candidate must be willing to travel to one of these locations:

Rockdale, TX

Why Join?

This is more than another Project Manager position.

You will join a national platform with an established track record in mission-critical construction and the financial strength, technical resources and project pipeline to compete for the country's largest data center developments.

The company's mission-critical business has been involved in data center construction since 1992 and today is delivering hyperscale facilities across the country, including projects approaching or exceeding one million square feet.

For the right individual, this offers:

• Exposure to hyperscale and large-scale data center projects.
• A national pipeline of mission-critical work.
• The opportunity to work with leading technology and data center clients.
• Significant career progression within a growing national platform.
• Access to experienced mission-critical leadership and technical teams.
• The opportunity to build a long-term career in one of the most important sectors in construction today.
