Senior Project Manager, Workforce Accomodation & Site Logistics
About The Position
IREN is a vertically integrated AI Cloud provider, delivering large-scale data centers and GPU clusters for AI training and inference. IREN’s platform is underpinned by its expansive portfolio of grid-connected land and power in renewable-rich regions across North America, Europe and APAC. Reporting directly to the Vice President of Operations, this is a ground-floor leadership opportunity to build and own the full lifecycle of workforce housing and site logistics across IREN's West Texas data center portfolio — forecasting demand, sourcing and procuring real estate and modular housing solutions, standing up and operating lodges for thousands of construction and operations personnel, and managing all vendor relationships, budgets, and regulatory compliance across multiple sites. With 100% renewable energy, we build, own and operate our data centers and take pride in being at the forefront of sustainable solutions for the ever-evolving applications of high-performance compute. We believe that human progress is invaluable, but it should be done in the right way – responsibly, sustainably and having a positive impact on the communities we operate in.
Requirements
- 8+ years in workforce housing, camp operations, or site logistics on construction, energy, mining, or infrastructure mega projects
- Direct experience sourcing accommodation solutions — real estate leasing, camp construction/procurement, or third-party operator partnerships — not just running existing facilities
- Strong commercial negotiation background; comfortable structuring lease and vendor deals independently, including flexible/scalable terms
- Experience managing multi-hundred to multi-thousand person workforce populations across multiple concurrent sites
- Working knowledge of OSHA and local/state codes for temporary worker housing
- Familiarity with small-market real estate dynamics (rural Texas experience a plus)
Responsibilities
- Forecast workforce housing demand by site and phase, partnering with Construction and Project Controls on manpower ramp curves 12–24 months out.
- Evaluate, source, and negotiate site solutions — motels, modular camps, man-camp operators, or long-term hotel leases — benchmarked against proximity, local market capacity, and cost-per-bed targets.
- Run RFPs and lead commercial negotiations with property owners, camp operators, and modular housing providers.
- Identify opportunities to share resources, staff, and purchasing across Texas and Oklahoma markets to reduce redundant spend.
- Structure vendor and landlord agreements with built-in flexibility to expand, contract, or shift between sites as construction schedules evolve.
- Maintain a portfolio view of all active agreements and recommend standardized modular specs so assets can be redeployed across sites.
- Own all vendor relationships and commercial terms for catering, housekeeping, laundry, waste management, and temporary housing — renegotiating cost-per-bed economics as demand changes.
- Direct site logistics including worker transport, camp access, parking, and cross-site personnel movement.
- Ensure all facilities meet OSHA, health department, and fire/life-safety requirements.
- Build and lead a site-level team across all four campuses.
- Own the annual accommodation and logistics budget — reporting cost-per-worker-day and deal economics to VP Operations for CAPEX and OPEX approvals.
- Build business cases and ROI comparisons for major sourcing decisions.
Benefits
- 100% company paid health insurance premiums (medical, dental, and vision) for employees, 75% company paid coverage for dependents
- Company-paid short-term and long-term disability insurance
- Voluntary life, critical illness, and accident coverage available
- Health Savings Accounts (HSA) – when combined with the High Deductible Health Plan
- Employee Assistance Program and wellness resources
- 401(k) retirement plan with company match
- Access to financial planning and legal services
- Paid Time Off (PTO) and paid holidays
- Internal skills training and advancement pathways
- Professional development to support certifications, continuing education, or role related training
- Company events and team-building activities
- Relocation (as applicable and based on successful candidate circumstances)
