Job Description:
Head of Data Centre Design | Climate Tech Infrastructure | Up to £120kThe Role
We’re looking for a senior, hands-on technical leader to own the end-to-end design governance of our data center projects. Over the next 6-9 months, you’ll be the technical authority coordinating design work across external engineering teams, working closely with our site sourcing team on project briefs and delivery.
Once established, you’ll build and lead a team to optimize our reference architecture as we scale globally.
This isn’t a typical data center role—you’ll be working at the intersection of HPC infrastructure, energy systems, and thermal network integration.
What You’ll Do
*Own and develop our data center reference architecture and technical standards
*Lead technical review, challenge, and sign-off of all externally produced designs
*Provide hands-on oversight across M&E disciplines—power architecture, high-density cooling, heat recovery interfaces
*Manage day-to-day relationships with architects, MEP consultants, and design-build contractors
*Support construction and commissioning teams with rapid technical decision-making
*Translate technical strategy into clear Employer’s Requirements and design briefs
*Ensure designs meet HPC performance requirements, resilience targets, and heat-reuse objectives
What We’re Looking For
Essential:
*8-12+ years in data center or mission-critical facility design with strong M&E background
*Proven experience as technical authority over third-party designs
*Track record delivering complex engineering projects from concept through commissioning
*Experience with HPC environments, high-density cooling, and resilient power systems
*Practical, hands-on mindset—comfortable diving into detailed design when needed
*Strong understanding of D&B delivery models
*Degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Building Services Engineering
*Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills
*Comfortable in fast-paced, entrepreneurial environments
Highly Desirable:
*Experience in energy or electrical infrastructure sectors
*Exposure to heat reuse, district heating, or thermal networks
*Broader system design experience beyond pure data center work
*Large infrastructure construction and operations background
*Chartered Engineer status
What We Offer
*Salary up to £120k + competitive package
*Hybrid working (office-based with flexibility)
*The chance to work at the cutting edge of sustainable infrastructure
*Mission-aligned, sharp team tackling a real climate challenge
*Opportunity to shape technical strategy as we scale globally
We’re looking for the right person, not the fastest hire—happy to wait for exceptional talent.
