Sr. Project Manager – Data Centers (Central U.S. | Owner’s Rep)

Ground-up. Brownfield. Fit-out.

Three concurrent mission-critical builds.

We’re partnering with a 100% data center-focused platform seeking a Senior Project Manager to act as the Owner’s Representative across multiple projects in the Central U.S.

This is not a GC role.

This is leadership on behalf of the owner - driving schedule, cost, quality, and accountability from preconstruction through commissioning and turnover.

What You’ll Lead

• Oversight of multiple concurrent data center builds (ground-up + upgrades)
• Direct interface with ownership and executive stakeholders
• GC and engineering firm oversight across all phases
• Executive-level reporting on schedule, risk, constraints, and budget
• Change order management and financial risk mitigation
• Cross-functional coordination (design, commissioning, controls, security, operations)
• Constructability review of electrical & mechanical systems
• Collaboration with commissioning teams to ensure performance prior to turnover

You’ll be the bridge between field execution and ownership expectations.

What You Bring

• 7+ years Project Management experience
• Mission-critical construction experience required
• Strong working knowledge of:
• Switchgear
• Generators
• Chillers & cooling towers
• AHUs
• Fire/life safety systems
• Integrated controls & security
• Ability to read and interpret full drawing packages
• Proficiency in MS Project, Excel, Bluebeam, Procore
• Executive communication strength

Rotation schedule:

2 weeks onsite | 1 week remote/home-based

Why This Role Stands Out

• True Owner-side leadership exposure
• Executive-level reporting visibility
• Influence across a growing data center portfolio
• Multi-project oversight - not single-job tunnel vision
• Heavy impact on commissioning and turnover performance

This is for PMs who understand that in mission-critical environments, details are not optional -they’re everything.

If you’ve delivered data center infrastructure and want to operate at the ownership level rather than just manage trades, let’s connect confidentially.

Message me directly.

The Role We Want You For

The Director of Construction is responsible for serving as the main point of contact overseeing the execution of ground-up student housing developments from preconstruction through closeout and stabilization handoff. The Director of Construction will run the owner/architect/contractor meetings, provide answers on behalf of ownership and keep the project team on task including pay application reviews, change order reviews, RFIs and submittals. This role oversees budgets, schedules, contracting strategy, quality, safety, and project controls across a portfolio of active projects, ensuring on-time, on-budget delivery aligned with the company’s design standards, brand, and operational requirements for student move-in.

This leader coordinates internal stakeholders (Development, Design, Finance, Asset Management, Operations/Property Management, Leasing/Marketing) and external partners (GCs, architects, engineers, consultants, municipalities, utilities) to de-risk delivery and drive predictable outcomes.

The Specifics of the Role

• Partner with Development and Design to translate underwriting assumptions into executable construction plans, budgets, and schedules.
• Lead GC/CM selection strategy (RFPs, interviews, scope leveling, bid analysis, buyout approach, qualifications).
• Develop and validate GMPs, construction schedules, logistics plans, and phasing strategies tailored to student housing turnover requirements.
• Manage constructability, value engineering, and scope alignment with brand standards and operational needs (durability, unit turns, amenity performance, life-safety, access control).
• Identify long-lead items and procurement risks early; drive early releases and supply chain strategies.
• Direct all construction activity across assigned projects, typically via third-party GCs/CMs, ensuring compliance with contract documents and company standards.
• Own project controls: schedule adherence, cost forecasting, change management, contingency governance, pay apps, and monthly reporting.
• Lead OAC cadence and executive-level project reviews; escalate risks with clear mitigation plans.
• Review and approve change orders, RFI impacts, submittals (as appropriate), and claims strategy in collaboration with Legal/Finance.
• Maintain strong field presence during critical phases (sitework, structure, enclosure, MEP rough-in, interior build, commissioning, punch, turnover).
• Establish project budgets and cost codes aligned with the company’s reporting standards; manage cash flow and forecast accuracy.
• Implement rigorous change control, ensuring scope clarity and protecting underwriting.
• Proactively manage entitlement/utility/municipal risks with Development and project teams.
• Coordinate insurance, bonding, safety compliance expectations, and risk transfer provisions.
• Enforce quality assurance processes: mockups, benchmarks, inspections, and punchlist discipline.
• Ensure all projects adhere to life-safety, accessibility, and code requirements; support commissioning and systems training.
• Champion jobsite safety culture and performance expectations with GC partners.
• Lead turnover strategy designed around student move-in deadlines (tight punch windows, phased turnover, furniture/FF&E coordination if applicable).
• Coordinate commissioning, inspections, CO/TCO, life-safety certifications, access control integration, and as-builts/O&M delivery.
• Drive closeout completion: warranty tracking, lien waivers, final accounting, and lessons learned.
• Lead, mentor, and develop Project Managers / Owners Reps (as applicable).
• Build a high-performing vendor network (GCs, MEP subs, consultants) and maintain preferred partner relationships.
• Standardize best practices, reporting templates, and construction playbooks across the portfolio.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Real Estate, Finance, Business, Design, Architecture, Engineering, or a related field
• 4–8+ years of experience in real estate development, preferably with student housing or multifamily projects
• Proven experience managing ground-up development projects exceeding $50MM+ in total cost
