IREN is a vertically integrated AI Cloud provider, delivering large-scale data centers and GPU clusters for AI training and inference. IREN’s platform is underpinned by its expansive portfolio of grid-connected land and power in renewable-rich regions across North America, Europe and APAC.

Reporting to the Project Director and taking day-to-day direction from a Senior Project Manager, the Project Manager provides the administrative backbone and on-site support for a data center building’s delivery.

It is where IREN grows its next generation of trade owners. This is a field role. The Project Manager is on site daily with the construction, procurement and engineering teams for the building they support, and spends as much time as possible alongside them.

We believe that human progress is invaluable, but it should be done in the right way – responsibly, sustainably and having a positive impact on the communities we operate in.

• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specifications.
• Executive presence and reporting: demonstrated ability to document and communicate project risks, schedule and budget clearly and consistently, in written reports and in person, to project leadership.
• Experience in a fast-paced growth environment; flexible approach to work hours and site-based work.
• OSHA 30.
• Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Suite (Project, Excel, Word, Outlook).

Preferred qualifications – trades

• Electrical: medium- and low-voltage distribution, switchgear, generators, UPS and battery systems.
• Mechanical: chillers, cooling towers, CRAH/CRAC units, hydronic and process piping, liquid cooling, HVAC and plumbing.
