Construction Project Manager – Data Centres Delivery
The Opportunity
A fantastic opportunity has opened for an experienced Construction Project Manager to join a global organisation delivering major data centre construction projects across the UK and Europe.
With operations expanding into new regions and a strong pipeline of large-scale builds and complex upgrades, this role gives you the platform to step into a key project leadership position within a team that’s growing intentionally and sustainably. You’ll work closely with major international clients (under NDA), overseeing the successful delivery of mission-critical infrastructure projects from concept through completion.
Based in the Gatwick office, you’ll enjoy hybrid working, a collaborative culture, and the chance to play a pivotal role in shaping the delivery of high-performance data centre environments.
About the Role
As the Construction Project Manager, you’ll take ownership of delivering data centre construction projects safely, efficiently, and to the highest standards. You’ll coordinate site teams, contractors, and suppliers to ensure programmes, resources, and costs stay on track, while maintaining full compliance with CDM regulations and client expectations.
From planning and administration to commercial oversight and on-site coordination, you’ll be the driving force behind ensuring each project progresses smoothly, aligns with contract requirements, and meets the demanding standards of the data centre sector.
You’ll work closely with senior management and cross-functional teams to uphold quality, foster strong relationships, and deliver a first-class service throughout the project lifecycle.
Key Responsibilities of the Construction Project Manager Position
- Oversee end-to-end project delivery across multiple data centre construction programmes.
- Lead pre-contract activities, maintain accurate project records, and ensure all site documentation and inductions are completed.
- Review and communicate design details, monitor progress against key milestones, and identify specialist requirements.
- Coordinate project meetings, share updates, and ensure actions are completed to keep delivery on track.
- Maintain and update health & safety documentation, monitor on-site compliance, and support welfare and training standards.
- Develop project programmes, manage resources, and resolve progress issues proactively.
- Monitor budgets, variations, and margins while supporting pricing and tenders for new opportunities.
- Coordinate subcontractors and suppliers, validate methods of work, and ensure alignment with programme timelines.
- Lead inspections, manage project handovers, and ensure all certifications, O&M manuals, and documentation are delivered.
About You
You’ll thrive in this Construction Project Manager role if you bring:
- Proven site or project management experience (3+ years), ideally within data centres or complex building environments.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with confidence engaging at all levels internally and externally.
- Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
- Technical understanding of construction activities from bidding through execution.
- A proactive, collaborative approach and the ability to work closely with senior teams and external stakeholders.
- M&E qualification or background.
- Strong awareness of CDM regulations.
- Project management qualification (desirable).
