You will manage multidisciplinary teams, oversee contractors on-site, ensure compliance with design and safety standards, and guarantee on-time and on-budget project execution.
The role is developed in a mission-critical environment, where the coordination of electrical, mechanical, refrigeration, cabling and redundant systems infrastructures requires a high level of technical expertise.

- Oversee planning, scheduling, procurement and documentation to ensure project delivery aligned with scope, budget, and quality benchmarks.
- Support the development of project estimates, cost plans and risk assessments.
2. Construction Oversight
- Provide daily oversight of on-site contractors, ensuring compliance with project scope, safety requirements, and technical specifications.
- Inspect construction progress, verify execution against design standards, and ensure safety and regulatory compliance.
- Manage logistics, supply chain interactions and owner‑furnished equipment when required.
3. Technical Coordination
- Coordinate the integration of electrical, mechanical, cooling and network systems typical of mission‑critical infrastructure.
- Support commissioning activities and ensure system readiness prior to go‑live.
4. Stakeholder & Communication Management
- Serve as the central point of contact for clients, contractors, engineers, and vendors.
- Lead project meetings and ensure aligned communication across all stakeholders.
- Report regularly on milestones, deliverables, dependencies, risks and issues.
5. Team & Resource Management
- Manage project resources and support multidisciplinary team coordination.
- Ensure that adequate personnel, materials and tools are available to meet project objectives.
