Project Manager - Data Center Construction

  2026-05-09     HAYS     Roanoke,VA  
Description:

We're partnered with a high-performing GC delivering large-scale, data center campuses across Northern Virginia—and they're selectively adding Project Managers who want more than just another project… they want scale, ownership of projects, and a clear move into Senior PM. This role is open to Project Managers from a Subcontractor or General Contractor background with 3-8 years of construction experience. Open to APMs looking for promotion to a PM, or current PMs.

Why this stands out:

  • Work on $100M–$400M+ data center campuses—not one-off builds
  • Long-term pipeline locked in across NoVA → stability + repeat high-value work
  • Exposure to complex, MEP-heavy mission critical environments
  • Clear path to Senior PM in ~2–3 years, tied to performance—not tenure.

The seat:

You'll sit at the center of delivery—working directly with a Project Executive and strong field teams, while taking ownership of:

  • Project financials, budgets, and forecasting
  • Scheduling and critical path execution
  • Coordination across major trade partners (MEP, electrical, mechanical)
  • RFIs, submittals, change management
  • Acting as a key client-facing leader on high-profile builds

This is a role where you scale up fast—in technical depth, responsibility, and visibility.

Who this fits:

  • PMs coming from a GC or subcontractor (electrical, mechanical, sitework, concrete).
  • Open to APMs looking for promotion to a PM, or current PMs.
  • Experience on data centers / mission critical / high-complexity builds
  • Someone who thrives in fast-paced, high-stakes environments
  • Looking for a platform where career trajectory actually accelerates

What's on the table:

  • $120K–$145K base + 10–20% bonus
  • Sign-on bonus + vehicle allowance
  • Profit sharing + 401k match
  • Company paid healthcare, dental and vision – majority paid by the employer.
  • 3 weeks PTO + 10 holidays
  • Paid parental leave
  • Structured development + real promotion path to Senior PM

What to do now:

If you are interested in this Project Manager position and have mission critical data center construction experience working for a subcontractor or general contractor, call me on 202-470-0641 or email me on scott.kinson@hays.com
