Résumé du poste

Jacobs is seeking a Hands-on Director of Electrical Procurement to lead end-to-end electrical procurement for two multi-billion-dollar data center campuses. You will own sourcing, negotiations, and contracting for critical equipment and trade packages, driving strategy and execution to meet schedule and budget.

You'll partner with design, construction, and commissioning teams, manage high-value deals, monitor cost and risk, and mentor a team while maintaining a hands-on leadership approach.

Qualifications

• 12+ years of procurement or commercial experience on large capital projects.
• Direct experience procuring electrical equipment and/or electrical trade packages for data centers or mission-critical facilities.
• Proven ability to operate as a hands-on director who personally drives outcomes, not just manages a team.
• Strong commercial judgment, negotiation skills, and understanding of data center electrical systems and construction sequencing.

Responsabilités

• Own sourcing, negotiation, and contracting for critical electrical equipment (switchgear, transformers, generators, UPS, PDUs, busway, cable, etc.).
• Lead procurement of electrical trade packages, including bid strategy, contractor selection, and contract administration.
• Develop and execute capacity plans to mitigate long-lead risk across both campuses.
• Partner with design, construction, and commissioning teams to align procurement with project schedules.
• Personally manage high-value deals, supplier performance, expediting, and escalations that threaten cost or schedule.
• Track and report on electrical procurement status, cost, and risk.
