You will work in close collaboration with architects, engineers, contractors, and other stakeholders to ensure on-time delivery and operational readiness for mission-critical facilities.

Key Responsibilities

Construction Oversight

  • Ensure alignment with project design specifications and operational requirements, maintaining a focus on quality and precision.
  • Utilize Primavera P6 or MS Project to develop and maintain project schedules, monitoring progress against key milestones.
  • Identify and address potential delays, bottlenecks, or resource constraints, implementing corrective measures to keep the project on track.
  • Proactively identify risks - such as supply chain issues, labor shortages, or weather disruptions - and devise mitigation strategies.
  • Conduct regular risk assessments and maintain open communication with project stakeholders to facilitate quick decision-making.

Site Safety & Regulatory Compliance

  • Enforce strict adherence to health and safety regulations, ensuring a safe working environment for all on-site personnel.
  • Oversee the implementation of safety programs, hazard assessments, and training, maintaining compliance with local and international standards.

Quality Assurance & Documentation

  • Review and approve contractor submittals, shop drawings, and RFIs, confirming alignment with project design and specifications.
  • Conduct regular site inspections to verify workmanship, materials, and compliance with quality standards.
  • Use Procore or BIM 360 for project documentation and management, ensuring accurate record-keeping and version control.

Stakeholder Coordination

  • Act as the primary point of contact for architects, engineers, subcontractors, and clients regarding construction-related matters.
  • Facilitate meetings, status updates, and site visits, presenting clear information on project progress and challenges.
  • Collaborate with internal teams (procurement, finance, engineering) to ensure resource availability and budget alignment.

Budget & Cost Control

  • Manage and monitor construction budgets, addressing any cost overruns through change order management and value engineering.
  • Collaborate with quantity surveyors or cost estimators to ensure accurate forecasting and financial reporting.
  • Champion process improvements and lessons learned for future data center construction projects, emphasizing efficiency, sustainability, and risk reduction.
  • Stay current with industry best practices, emerging construction technologies, and sustainable building methods.
Skills & Qualifications
  • Education : Bachelor's or Master's degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a related field.
  • Experience : 10+ years managing large-scale construction projects, preferably mission-critical facilities like data centers or high-tech industrial sites. Demonstrated success in leading projects through the full construction lifecycle, including commissioning and handover.
  • Technical Skills : Primavera P6 and/or MS Project for scheduling. Procore or BIM 360 for construction project management. Strong knowledge of relevant health, safety, and environmental regulations.
  • Soft Skills : Exceptional leadership, negotiation, and communication abilities, with the capacity to manage diverse, cross-functional teams.
