In the posting’s own words

As a Regional Manager, you'll own delivery across a regional portfolio of active and upcoming projects. You'll build and lead the team of Senior Delivery Managers and third-party partners who sit on those sites, set the standards they execute to, and step in yourself where a project needs it. You are the executive-level interface to our developer partners in the region and the intake point for projects handed over from our transaction team.

What it asks for · 7

  • Have 10+ years delivering data center or other mission-critical construction, including several as the owner's or GC's senior leader on a project campus
  • Have led a multi-project portfolio and built the team that delivered it
  • Know the end-to-end development process — entitlements and permitting, design, long-lead equipment, construction, commissioning, and handover — well enough to direct partners rather than take their word for it
  • Have managed developer, GC, and third-party relationships at the executive level and can move them from arm's-length contract administration to shared urgency
  • Lead through presence: you expect to be on site most of the time and to set the pace and culture of extended teams you don't directly employ
  • Communicate clearly with technical and non-specialist stakeholders and hold a position when challenged
  • Are comfortable with ambiguity and with owning outcomes where no process exists yet

Also a plus

  • Hyperscale data center delivery experience on the owner, developer, or GC side
  • Experience with the Australian and Japanese/Korean market — its contractors, permitting regimes, and contractual norms
  • Familiarity with lease, construction, and development contract structures and how to align their incentives around speed

What the job covers

  • Lead. This is a role where leadership trumps management and process. You are expected to be on the region's sites enough to shape the culture, approach, and aggressiveness that define the extended teams there — across the portfolio, not one project — and to impact outcomes in a favorable manner.
  • Be a force multiplier. Hire, develop, empower, and lead the Senior Delivery Managers on those sites, and raise the skillset developers, contractors, owner's-rep partners, and key trades bring to every project in the region; plan resourcing and headcount as the portfolio grows.
  • Own portfolio execution for the region — schedule, quality, and safety outcomes on every active project, measured against early-floor-access and floor-access milestones. You are empowered and have autonomy to own this region's record of performance.
  • Drive ownership and influence both inside and outside contractual structures: select, scope, contract, and manage owner's-rep and project-management partners; where contracts, incentives, or culture get in the way of speed, change them, and replace partners when performance or culture slips
  • Set and enforce delivery standards across projects — integrated schedule, quality requirements, change control, reporting, and tools — and validate that they are met
  • Identify blockers early and clear them across developer, GC, and trade layers; step in on site where a project needs it

How this page was made

An automated read of a public job posting, fetched August 29, 2026 and last changed by Anthropic on August 28, 2026. Every list above is pulled from the posting’s own sentences — nothing rewritten, nothing added, no judgment about the role or the company. Counts and seniority are read off the text by rule, so they can be wrong where the posting is unusual. The original is the only thing that binds. Openings close without warning; check the source before spending an evening on it.
