Job Description & How to Apply Below
Build what powers the future.
As a Construction Manager (CM) you'll be the on-site delivery lead accountable for end-to-end execution of complex, fast-paced construction scope within a mission-critical portfolio. This is a hands-on field leadership role for builders who thrive on ownership-driving safety, quality, schedule certainty, and financial performance while partnering closely with the GC, key trades, internal stakeholders, and local authorities.
You don't need traditional "data center-only" experience to win here. If you've led delivery in Telecom, industrial, oil & gas, chemical, advanced manufacturing, utilities, hospitals, or other critical infrastructure, and you're strong in MEP, you'll feel right at home.
What You'll Own (Day-to-Day)
+ Lead site execution as the on-site delivery authority-running the build with the GC and trade partners, coordinating daily activities, and removing blockers to keep crews productive and safe.
+ Build trust fast across contractors, designers, internal partners, and stakeholders-setting the tone for collaboration, urgency, and accountability.
+ Drive a world-class safety culture-own the plan, enforce expectations, and model the behaviors that prevent incidents and protect teams.
+ Deliver predictable outcomes across:
+ Quality (inspection readiness, punch management, QA/QC coordination)
+ Schedule (look-aheads, constraint clearing, milestone discipline)
+ Cost (forecasting, change control, scope alignment, risk quantification)
+ Own issue and risk management-identify early, escalate smartly, and push decisions that protect schedule and cost certainty.
+ Coordinate with AHJs and local stakeholders as needed to keep permits, inspections, and approvals on track.
+ Support preconstruction (as applicable): constructability input, scope alignment, budget development, schedule planning, and GMP support.
+ Partner across teams to support commissioning readiness and integrated turnover-especially where MEP, electrical, and connectivity/system integration intersect.
What Success Looks Like
+ The site runs safely, cleanly, and predictably-teams know the plan and execute it.
+ Trade partners are aligned, RFIs/submittals don't stall the field, and constraints get cleared before they become delays.
+ Quality is built-in (not inspected-in): rework is minimized, punch is controlled, turnover is smooth.
+ Forecasts are credible: schedule status is real-time, cost and change are transparent, risks are actively managed.
What You Bring (Must-Have)
+ Exceptional relationship-building + communication: you can influence without drama, align competing priorities, and keep teams moving together.
+ Strong construction leadership in complex environments-field-forward, decisive, and calm under pressure.
+ Deep MEP knowledge (mechanical, electrical, plumbing)-you can lead conversations, validate plans in the field, and spot risk early (bonus if heavy electrical).
+ Schedule & budget command: you understand how plans translate into work, sequencing, productivity, and cost outcomes; you've partnered effectively with PMs and project controls.
+ Experience leading execution in at least one of the following:
+ Data centers / mission critical
+ Industrial / oil & gas / chemical
+ Power / utilities / substations
+ Advanced manufacturing / pharma
+ Hospitals or other critical infrastructure
Nice to Have (Not Required)
+ Direct data center construction delivery experience.
+ Familiarity with commissioning, integrated systems turnover, and/or connectivity coordination (cabling/network integration).
+
Experience with GMP development and managing scopes under contract delivery models.
Why This Role (Employee Value Proposition)
+ High visibility, mission-critical portfolio: you'll help deliver infrastructure that directly supports the most critical operations and growth.
+ Real ownership: you're not a pass-through-your leadership drives outcomes in the field.
+ Complex builds, strong partners, meaningful scale: if you love solving hard construction problems with smart teams, you'll be in your element.
