Construction Project Manager - Data Centers

Location: New Jersey
High‑Growth Digital Infrastructure Developer | Major Bonuses & Equity Included

I'm partnered with a digital infrastructure company backed by one of the world's most powerful industrial property groups. Their parent organization manages more than 56 billion dollars in assets across the US, Europe, and APAC, with 8.5 billion dollars currently in development. This gives their data center platform access to resources, land positions, and capital that few new entrants can match.

Launched in 2023, their data center business is already scaling at remarkable speed, with more than 1 gigawatt of development underway. Their focus on power‑ready sites and their ability to leverage the parent company's global footprint has positioned them as one of the most exciting new players in the US data center market.

They are now hiring a Construction Project Manager - Data Centers, based in New Jersey, to support major builds across the region. This is a role for someone ambitious, driven, and ready to join a platform where growth is accelerating quickly. Equity will be part of the package.


The Role

The Construction Project Manager will lead the delivery of large, technically complex data center projects from early planning through closeout. Working alongside development, design, and executive leadership, you will help establish best‑in‑class construction practices for a fast‑growing platform.

You will also help shape how projects are planned, executed, and scaled in the NY/NJ market, playing a key part in the company's long‑term expansion strategy.


Key Responsibilities

  • Manage full lifecycle construction activities for data center projects in New Jersey
  • Coordinate schedules, budgets, procurement, subcontractors, and on‑site workflows
  • Serve as a primary interface with contractors, consultants, and internal teams
  • Drive risk management, quality control, safety performance, and project reporting
  • Support project planning, constructability reviews, and early‑stage site readiness
  • Contribute to a high‑growth environment with evolving processes and fast timelines

What We're Looking For

  • Strong experience managing complex construction projects, ideally data centers or mission critical facilities
  • Familiarity with high power, highly coordinated, technically intense environments
  • A proactive, hands‑on builder who thrives in a fast‑moving, scaling environment
  • Someone ambitious, hungry, and motivated to grow with a platform that is expanding quickly
  • A commercially aware mindset with the ability to communicate clearly and lead effectively
  • Interest in a role with real ownership and the opportunity for long‑term equity growth

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Backed by a global parent company with 56B dollars AUM
  • Access to major land assets and power‑ready development sites
  • Over 8.5B dollars in development across the broader platform
  • A data center arm experiencing rapid growth since its 2023 launch
  • More than 1 gigawatt of active projects already underway
  • Equity included, with strong upside potential
  • A chance to help shape a major footprint in the NY/NJ region
