We’re partnering with a data center platform delivering some of the most advanced mission-critical projects in the country - and they’re seeking a Senior Project Manager (Owner’s Rep) to lead from the front.
This role isn’t about tracking tasks.

Why This Role Matters
This is an opportunity to:
- Influence high-value data center developments
- Operate at the ownership level
- Shape strategy, not just execution
- Build facilities that perform for decades
You’ll report directly to the Director of Construction and play a meaningful role in the continued expansion of a rapidly growing portfolio.
If you thrive in high-performance environments, value accountability, and understand that mission-critical delivery leaves no margin for guesswork - this is worth a conversation.
