Job summary

Vultr is seeking an Acquisitions Manager to run the deal line on our data center acquisition pipeline. You will engage operators and landowners, drive non-binding LOIs, negotiate term sheets, and carry the commercial position through final documentation while the Director leads the largest deals.

This role requires 5-8 years of experience negotiating LOIs and term sheets, fluency in data center lease economics, and strong Excel skills.

Qualifications

• 5-8 years of transaction execution in data center, commercial real estate, energy, or infrastructure: you have personally negotiated LOIs and term sheets, not only supported them
• Fluency in data center lease economics: rate structures, escalations, minimum obligations, delivery liquidated damages, expansion rights, and acceptance mechanics
• Track record of closing under deadline pressure while running multiple concurrent deals
• Strong term sheet drafting instincts and comfort working redlines with counsel
• Working command of deal economics in Excel: rate comparisons, NPV of term structures, obligation exposure

Responsibilities

• Pull qualified sites from proposal-ready inventory, engage operator and landowner counterparties, and establish deal cadence
• Drive non-binding LOIs covering rate, term, escalations, delivery milestones, and due diligence exclusivity
• Negotiate term sheets and final commercial terms on standard transactions; escape the largest and most complex to the Director with a clear position
• Work operator deliverables through the deal: floor plans, one-line diagrams, ESA status, delivery schedules, and milestone commitments
• Convert diligence findings into negotiating leverage; hold the commercial position through redline cycles with the Contracts Coordination Manager and counsel
• Maintain back-to-back alignment between the site transaction and the customer contract: token date versus power-on, term versus term, ramp versus minimum obligations
• Manage multiple concurrent negotiations without dropping threads; keep tracker dispositions and deal records current
• Prepare gate inputs: deal term summaries, open commercial issues, and risk items with recommended positions
• Support clean handoff at signature with a complete executed commercial record
