Job Description

Infrastructure Project Manager – Data Centre

 

Brisbane | 6–12 Month Contract | Major AI Infrastructure Build

 

We’re looking for an experienced Infrastructure Project Manager to lead the end-to-end delivery of a major data centre build in Brisbane.

This is a hands-on infrastructure delivery role — not software, applications or transformation. You’ll be managing a complex programme spanning compute, networking, storage, power, cooling, cabling and data centre facilities, working across internal engineering teams, vendors and third-party contractors.

 

What you'll be doing

  • Own the data centre project from planning through to commissioning and handover

  • Manage delivery across network, storage, compute and facilities

  • Coordinate power, cooling, structured cabling and data hall readiness

  • Manage vendors, contractors, procurement and infrastructure supply chains

  • Own project plans, budgets, timelines, risks and dependencies

  • Lead governance, milestone reviews, steering updates and change control

  • Oversee infrastructure commissioning, acceptance testing and operational handover

  • Work closely with technical engineering teams delivering production AI infrastructure

 

What we're looking for

You’ll have a strong track record delivering large-scale infrastructure or data centre projects.

Ideally, you'll bring:

  • Significant data centre / IT infrastructure project delivery experience

  • Experience across network, storage, compute and facilities infrastructure

  • Strong third-party vendor and contractor management

  • Understanding of rack & stack, cabling, power provisioning and cooling

  • Experience managing complex technical dependencies and infrastructure deployments

  • Strong stakeholder management and executive-level communication

  • Experience within a hyperscaler, data centre operator or large infrastructure environment highly regarded

  • Exposure to HPC, GPU or AI infrastructure would be a major advantage
