- Collaborate closely with construction, MEP, commissioning, security, and network teams to maintain programme alignment.
- Attend and lead progress, coordination, client, and contractor meetings.
- Identify programme risks and site constraints, implementing solutions to maintain delivery schedules.
- Ensure all installations meet project specifications, quality standards, and approved design requirements.
- Oversee testing, inspections, defect management, as-built documentation, and final turnover packs.
- Support commercial activities including change management, progress tracking, reporting, and budget monitoring.
Requirements
Essential
- Experience coordinating subcontractors and managing site-based delivery activities.
- Ability to engage effectively with construction, MEP, commissioning, IT, security, commercial, and client stakeholders.
- Excellent communication, leadership, and organisational skills.
- Experience on a Google project.
- Willingness to travel as required.
Desirable
- Data centre, hyperscale or mission-critical project experience.
- Experience working within technically complex or secure environments.
- Understanding of commissioning and structured handover processes.
What's on Offer
- Opportunity to work on some of Europe's most advanced AI and hyperscale data centre developments.
- Long-term project opportunities within the rapidly growing Frankfurt data centre market.
- Exposure to cutting-edge telecoms and digital infrastructure projects.
- Career development within one of the fastest-growing sectors in construction and technology.
- Competitive salary, benefits package, and clear progression opportunities.
