I am currently partnering with a Tier-1 Data Center developer/operator who is scaling their footprint across Germany. They are seeking a Project Manager capable of navigating the high-complexity environment of German infrastructure-balancing strict local regulations with aggressive global delivery timelines.

- Sustainability Integration: Implementing waste-heat recovery and green power solutions-critical for the 2026 German market.
The Ideal Candidate

- German Market Expertise: Deep familiarity with VOB, German building codes, and the local subcontractor landscape.
- Language Proficiency: You must be comfortable negotiating in German with local authorities and reporting in English to international stakeholders.
- Sector Experience: Previous success in Data Centers, Semi-conductors, or high-spec Pharma projects.
Why Partner With My Client?
- Project Scale: Responsibility for CAPEX projects ranging from €150M to €500M+.
