This role is ideal for a senior construction professional who has successfully delivered large-scale data center projects from "dirt to done" and understands how to influence project outcomes while partnering effectively with developers, contractors, consultants, and executive stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities

• Represent the owner's interests throughout all phases of project delivery.
• Provide oversight of schedule, cost, quality, risk, and construction execution.
• Monitor project performance and proactively identify risks, delays, and budget impacts.
• Coordinate with developers, general contractors, architects, engineers, and commissioning teams.
