The digital world runs on power. And right now, we're building the backbone of it.

We're working with our client who is looking to hire a Senior Electrical Construction Manager to lead the electrical delivery on one of Europe's most ambitious hyperscale data centre projects.

This is mission-critical work. Multi-MW installations. Redundant systems that can't fail. N+1 architecture where precision isn't optional-it's everything. And you'll be at the centre of it all, working with a Top 10 M&E contractor known for securing the projects others only dream of.

What You'll Command:

End-to-end electrical delivery on a hyperscale data centre-from design coordination through to energisation and commissioning
Leadership of multidisciplinary site teams, specialist subcontractors, and package managers across HV/LV systems, backup power, and critical infrastructure
Strategic client engagement with hyperscale operators and tech giants who demand flawless execution
Technical authority over EHV/HV switchgear, generator systems, UPS, PDUs, and busbar installations
Design integration with MEP, controls, and BMS teams-ensuring every system speaks the same language
Commercial oversight: managing multi-million-pound packages while protecting margins and programme
Risk management across complex, fast-track programmes where delays cost millionsWhat Sets You Apart:

Senior-level M&E experience managing large-scale electrical projects (£20m+ value)
Hyperscale or Mission-Critical environment expertise-Data Centres, Co-location facilities, or Critical Infrastructure
Deep technical knowledge of HV/LV systems, standby power, UPS architecture, and resilient electrical design (Tier III/IV standards)
Fluent in BS 7671, IET guidance, CDM regulations, and the unique compliance demands of data centre environments
Proven ability to manage fast-track programmes with overlapping trades and compressed timelines
Strong commercial acumen-you understand P&L, cost control, and what drives project profitability
Relevant qualifications + CSCS/ECS/SSSTS as standardWhat Takes You to the Next Level:

HNC/HND or Degree in Electrical Engineering
SMSTS, IOSH Managing Safely, or equivalent senior safety qualifications
Experience with Uptime Institute standards (Tier III/IV certification processes)
BIM Level 2 and digital design coordination experience
Membership with IET, CIBSE, or similar professional bodies
Background working with hyperscale clients (AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Meta, Oracle, etc.)This is infrastructure at the edge of what's possible.

If you've been waiting for a project that genuinely challenges what you're capable of-this is it.

Ready to power the future?
