Résumé du poste

Jacobs is seeking a seasoned procurement and commercial professional to lead strategic procurement for data center construction, coordinating with engineering, preconstruction, estimating, project management, and field operations.

Responsibilities include reviewing bids and change orders, negotiating terms, and driving cost control on complex, high-dollar projects requiring deep MEP experience. Onsite presence is required and collaboration across teams is essential.

Qualifications

• Approximately 7-12 years of experience in construction, procurement, preconstruction, project management, commercial management, MEP, or supply chain.
• Experience with a general contractor, electrical/mechanical contractor, major specialty subcontractor, owner/developer, or construction procurement organization.
• Strong preference for candidates with experience on data centers, advanced manufacturing, industrial, life sciences, healthcare, or other technically complex projects.
• Significant experience procuring MEP trades and/or major electrical and mechanical equipment is strongly preferred.
• Experience administering lump-sum, unit-rate, T&M, and/or GMP commercial structures.
• Demonstrated experience reviewing change orders and detailed cost backup.
• Strong understanding of construction contracts and commercial terms.
• Comfortable working with large dollar values and high-volume procurement activity.
• Advanced Excel skills required.

Responsabilités

• Develop a working understanding of the technical scope being procured rather than treating procurement as an administrative function.
• Review drawings, specifications, scopes of work, equipment requirements, and construction sequencing.
• Work directly with engineering, preconstruction, estimating, project management, field operations, scheduling, and commercial teams.
• Identify mismatches between drawings, specifications, estimates, proposals, contracts, and actual project requirements.
• Understand how procurement decisions affect construction schedule, installation sequencing, logistics, commissioning, and overall project risk.
• Escalate unresolved scope gaps before award rather than allowing ambiguity to become a future change order.
