Technical Project Manager
Technical Program Manager – Data Center Cooling Infrastructure
Building hyperscale data centers is complex. Cooling them at scale is an art form.
A leading infrastructure construction consultancy has retained us to find a uniquely skilled Technical Program Manager who sits exactly at the intersection of complex mechanical design and high-stakes program execution. Operating as the owner's representative, you will bridge the gap between regional site teams and global equipment vendors.
Location
Remote (United Kingdom or Europe based) with 10% travel to different sites across the UK and EU
Position Type
Contract FTC – Chance for Permanent after a year
Compensation
£80,000 – £90,000
About the Role
Provide expert technical program management services to supplement internal capacity, driving the cross-functional execution, delivery, and standardization of large-scale data center cooling equipment. As a Cooling Infrastructure TPM, the ideal candidate will bridge the gap between complex mechanical engineering (evaporative/non-evaporative coolers, chillers, dry coolers) and program management—balancing client-side procurement and design standards with vendor-side delivery across regional projects.
Experience Requirements
- Minimum of 5 years of experience managing technical programs, product lines, or large-scale engineering delivery, with specific expertise in data center process cooling equipment (fluid coolers, cooling towers, chillers)
- Experience working both client-side (owner’s technical representative) and design/vendor-side to effectively manage:
- Production timelines
- Equipment dependencies
- Site-level integration
- Strong technical understanding of cooling equipment topologies, including:
- Heat rejection mechanics
- Hydronic interfaces
- Water quality systems
- Controls
- Acoustic/environmental constraints
- Background in managing complex equipment vendor relationships, Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) frameworks, or modular/skidded cooling product deployments

- Coordinate with CAD/BIM teams to ensure cooler dimensions, weights, pipe connections, and structural/electrical interfaces match facility constraints.
- Partner with:
- Construction
- On-site testing/commissioning
- Change management teams
- Track, prioritize, and triage site-originated cooler issues (e.g., installation clashes, performance deviations).
