Area Construction Manager, Data Center

Meta is seeking an experienced Area Construction Manager to join our Data Center Design, Engineering, & Construction (DEC) Team. Our Infrastructure family builds, operates, and retrofits the Meta data centers in service to the Meta family of Apps and it is the DEC Delivery Construction Management team that oversees the Construction activities.

The DEC Delivery Construction Management (CM) organization is responsible to manage the construction execution for our Data Center fleet including new build (greenfield), retrofit (live environment changes), and onsite fiber installations (trunk to top of rack) through handoff of data halls to be provisioned with racks and servers.

Key responsibilities include overseeing assigned projects including Land Ready and Construction Ready Sites, The ACM will have 8 to 10 direct reports and provide leadership by influencing a matrixed team of Safety, QAQC, and Project Controls professionals to achieve predictable outcomes. This role also involves building high-quality internal and external partnerships. The ACM typically supports 6-8 regions, each with 2-6 Full Time Employees (FTE), and due to the dispersed nature of the sites, significant travel is required, 50% or more, to ensure effective support and collaboration.

A consistent track record of delivering projects on time and within budget is essential, prioritizing incorporating lessons learned, team health, and project success, while maintaining high financial stewardship, collaboration, and partnership within our matrixed DEC organization.
