Job Description
Project Manager – Hyperscale Data Centre (Belgium)
Location: Belgium (project-based)
Package: Cometative
Start: ASAP (flexible for the right person), preferably March
The Role
This is a delivery-first Project Manager role on a live hyperscale data centre project.
The successful candidate will take clear ownership of site delivery, manage interfaces, control programme, and act as the senior on-site representative. Scope, responsibilities, and decision lines are defined early, and issues are addressed as soon as they surface. There is a clear progression path into an Operations or SLT role beyond the initial project. Brooklyn is the starting point, not the end state.
Key Responsibilities
● Full day-to-day ownership of site delivery
● Programme control and disciplined short-term planning
● Interface management with Tier 1 contractor, client, and subcontractors
● Control of safety, quality, and sequencing
● Early identification and escalation of risk
● Commercial management of the project in conjunction with the commercial lead
● Calm, consistent leadership on site
● Representing the organisation credibly and transparently at senior site level
This role suits someone who prefers order, preparation, and repeatable execution over constant fire-fighting.
Required Background
● Strong experience on data centre or mission-critical projects
● Proven delivery experience on complex, live sites
● Comfortable working site-based and abroad
● Experience interfacing with Tier 1 contractors
● Trusted by clients as a reliable, competent site lead
Preferred Background
Mechanical background strongly preferred, ideally:
● HVAC
● Cooling systems
● Building services
● Experience managing mechanical packages within data centre environments
● Ability to understand and challenge sequencing and installation logic
Candidates without a mechanical background may be considered where data centre delivery experience is particularly strong.
Employment Structure
● Irish payroll preferred, standard PAYE, pension, and benefits
● UK-paid candidates may be considered where experience is an exceptional fit
● Travel, accommodation, and subsistence fully covered
● Clear overseas assignment structure
This preference reflects long-term organisational structure rather than short-term project needs.
What This Role Is Not
● A reporting-only PM position
● A client-side coordination role
● A reactive or chaos-driven environment
● A short-term, one-project appointment
How We Work
Focus is on clear expectations, early decisions, and steady execution.
The business is structured to support sustainable performance on long-running projects, rather than relying on individual heroics or constant escalation. This role suits someone who wants to
build capability over time, not just push through the next deadline.
Why This Role Is Attractive
● High-profile hyperscale project
● Real delivery ownership and autonomy
● Defined progression beyond the initial project
● Opportunity to join a growing, delivery-led organisation
● Long-term mindset rather than short-term pressure
