Project Development Manager- Data Centers

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Project Development Manager – Data Centers based in Switzerland.

As a Project Development Manager, you’ll lead complex AI infrastructure projects from executed agreements through construction readiness, helping transform strategic acquisitions into fully defined, development-ready data center projects.

You’ll oversee integrated development roadmaps, budgets, schedules, milestones, and pre-construction risk management across multiple workstreams.

The role brings together infrastructure planning, permitting, utilities, engineering, finance, legal, and delivery teams to keep projects progressing predictably.

You’ll work closely with utility providers, municipalities, consultants, and development partners to validate executable plans and resolve risks before they affect construction.

You’ll also help establish development standards, governance frameworks, readiness gates, and project controls for a growing infrastructure development function.

This is a hands-on, build-phase role suited to someone comfortable operating independently in an evolving environment and creating structure where processes are still being developed.

You’ll have the opportunity to contribute to large-scale AI infrastructure projects while shaping repeatable practices that can support future expansion.
