  • Project Manager – Data Center (Electrical Infrastructure)
  • Location: Columbus
  • Industry: Mission-Critical Electrical Infrastructure
  • Engagement: Permanent
  • The Opportunity
  • A leading electrical contractor operating at the highest level of the mission-critical sector is entering a major expansion phase.

This is not a replacement hire.

The business is actively scaling its delivery capability to meet unprecedented demand from hyperscale data center projects with over 100 new project delivery professionals being added between now and January.

At the centre of this growth is a long-term, strategic partnership with Amazon Web Services, delivering some of the most technically complex and fast-paced data center builds in North America.

This is a rare opportunity to join one of the largest electrical contractors in the market, fully dedicated to hyperscale data center delivery.

  • The Role
  • As Project Manager, you will take ownership of major electrical packages within live hyperscale data center environments. You’ll be leading delivery from pre-construction coordination through to commissioning, ensuring world-class execution on some of the most high-profile builds in the industry.

You will sit at the centre of multidisciplinary teams delivering critical infrastructure that powers global cloud services.

  • Key Responsibilities
  • Lead end-to-end delivery of large-scale data center electrical projects
  • Manage programme, cost, risk, and delivery strategy across complex workstreams
  • Coordinate directly with client-side teams, consultants, and specialist subcontractors
  • Oversee HV/LV installation, testing, and commissioning activities in live environments
  • Drive construction sequencing in fast-track hyperscale programmes
  • Ensure strict adherence to QA/QC, safety, and compliance standards
  • Manage forecasting, reporting, and commercial controls
  • Resolve high-level technical and logistical challenges in real time
  • What Makes This Different
  • Join a contractor fully dedicated to hyperscale data center delivery (no general construction dilution)
  • Direct exposure to Amazon Web Services projects at scale
  • Part of a rapid expansion of 100+ hires in under a year
  • Long-term pipeline of secured, multi-billion-dollar infrastructure programmes
  • Genuine career acceleration in one of the fastest-growing sectors in construction
  • What We’re Looking For
  • Proven Project Management experience in data center or mission-critical electrical projects
  • Strong background in electrical engineering / building services (HV/LV preferred)
  • Experience delivering fast-track, large-scale construction programmes
  • Strong commercial and contractual awareness
  • Confident stakeholder management across client and delivery teams
  • Ability to operate in high-pressure, high-complexity environments
  • PMP / PRINCE2 advantageous but not essential
  • Why This Role
  • This is a chance to step into one of the most active hyperscale delivery environments in the US right now where scale, speed, and technical complexity are all increasing simultaneously.
  • You won’t just be managing projects, you’ll be helping deliver the infrastructure behind global cloud computing at scale.
