- Build strong relationships across the supply chain, stakeholders, and relevant authorities to support effective and timely delivery.
- Contribute to continuous improvement across delivery models, processes, and ways of working as Nscale scales across Europe.
Who You Are
- 12+ years’ experience delivering major construction projects, ideally within hyperscale data centres, mission-critical facilities, or large-scale infrastructure sectors.
• Degree-qualified in a related discipline.
• Proven track record delivering design-and-build or EPC projects from concept through commissioning.
• Deep understanding of multidisciplinary design coordination, construction, MEP systems, and data centre construction requirements.
• Strong grasp of cost control, scheduling, risk management, and stakeholder governance.
• Excellent communicator and negotiator, capable of influencing at senior levels and driving performance across large, complex delivery teams.
• Highly organised, decisive, and outcome-focused, with a balance of strategic insight and operational acumen.
