PMO Project Manager (Data Center Construction)

Galaxy•Dallas, TX

About The Position

The PMO Project Manager (Data Center Construction) is the PMO's embedded project management partner to the Pre-Construction and Construction functions. This is not a traditional construction PM role responsible for replacing the technical ownership of the Pre-Construction or Construction teams. Department leaders and subject matter experts retain ownership and accountability for their work. Instead, the PM provides the cross-functional coordination, structure, visibility, and accountability required to move complex initiatives forward across departmental boundaries. Pre-construction and construction activities inherently depend on multiple teams - including Site Development, Operations, Technology, EHS, Finance, Procurement, Legal, and external partners. The PM ensures those dependencies are identified early, responsibilities are clear, decisions occur at the appropriate time, and work across departments remains aligned to broader project and business priorities. The role gives department leadership a partner who can take complex initiatives and create the structure required to execute them effectively while allowing technical leaders to remain focused on their areas of expertise.

Requirements

5+ years of experience in project management, program management, construction, infrastructure, engineering, development, or a related environment.
Experience coordinating complex initiatives involving multiple departments, technical teams, and business stakeholders.
Working knowledge of pre-construction and construction processes sufficient to understand dependencies, sequencing, terminology, and business impacts.
Strong ability to take ambiguous or complex initiatives and create structured execution plans.
Demonstrated ability to facilitate cross-functional teams and create accountability without direct authority.
Strong stakeholder-management skills and ability to communicate effectively with technical teams, functional leaders, and executives.
Strong problem-solving skills with an ability to identify organizational gaps, dependencies, and risks before they affect execution.
Experience with project/work management platforms such as Jira and related collaboration and documentation tools.
Strong written and verbal communication and executive reporting skills.

PMP or equivalent certification preferred.
