About You
We’re looking for someone with a strong commercial background within major construction or MEP projects, ideally with experience working on data centres, critical infrastructure or other large-scale technically complex projects.
You’ll need to be commercially strong, confident dealing with senior stakeholders and comfortable taking ownership of a project of significant scale. Data centre experience is advantageous, but experience on other major Tier 1 / complex construction projects will also be considered.
Most importantly, you’ll need to be comfortable with the UK / Finland rotational setup.
