Datacenter Operations Manager - Madrid

We are looking for an experienced data center facilities professional looking to step up into a country wide management position from the Madrid HQ of one of Spain’s most innovative start-up data center providers.

The successful candidate will have comparable experience to a Site Manager or Chief Engineer in data centers or the wider critical infrastructure industry.

From a technical point of view, we are searching for an SME in Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP).

This is your opportunity to join a start-up AI-Ready Data Center provider, that is building its own sites from the ground up.

With the first site going operational in 2026, you will be starting the role with a blank canvas, designing processes and building your team from scratch.

Reporting directly into the CTO, you will eventually be responsible for a team of more than 10 Site Managers and Chief Engineers. However, with sites still in construction phase, your initial tasks will vary on a daily basis, and you will be expected to turn your skills to any task at hand. A pro-active, adaptable attitude is a must!

Become one of the first technical hires at the company and truly be involved in this amazing project from the start.

This opportunity will not be open for long, so apply today and we can tell you more!
