Job Description

This is a Client-side opportunity working within the Construction Projects team for a significant Data Centre owner/operator on a Data Centre scheme about to start the pre-con phase near Nottingham. This is a busy role whereby you will be Project Managing from pre-con through to handover internally. All works are within the BMS, Electrical, or Mechanical (cooling) disciplines, so both technical services experience and data centre live site experience are important. The Project Manager is ultimately responsible for project oversight and review of all disciplines including electrical, mechanical, controls, and architectural.

A fundamental understanding of these systems is required, as the individual will be expected to identify areas for improvement as well as act on data provided from other teams and organisations. This role requires both independent contribution as well as the ability to work within multi-disciplinary teams and internal business units. The Project Manager is responsible for the overall direction, coordination, implementation, execution, control, and completion of specific projects ensuring consistency with company strategy, commitments, and goals.

Responsibilities include:

1. Project management and oversight of build and retrofitting related activities as they relate to modifying existing infrastructure for the purpose of installing new or replacing end-of-life equipment. This will include the ownership of the project scope, timeline, and budget.
2. Provide project management for specific initiatives aimed at increasing the resiliency of the data centres.
3. Construction/project package drawing review.
4. Creation of project scope, request for proposals, and capital requests.
5. Total project quality including the creation of a commissioning plan and oversight of the execution.
6. Recording and reporting key metrics to team members and management.
7. Operational support including review of procedures, best practices, and maintenance initiatives.
8. Drive teams to perform troubleshooting and root cause failure analysis associated with equipment or electrical failures.
9. Work with contractors and vendors to deliver efficient and high-quality project turnovers.
10. Be a leader within the group as well as within internal and external teams that support the data centre.

This is a great long-term opportunity within a great industry. The role is outside IR35. Candidates must be UK-based and happy to conduct site visits as appropriate. Please note your main skill set and expertise must be M&E (Building Services). This is not a general or IT PM position.
