Senior Project Manager Data Center / Project Lead Data Center (m/w/d)

Shape a better world with us

Data centers are increasingly becoming a core component of our vital infrastructure. Their operators must therefore ensure the longevity of their sites, optimize them for mission-critical tasks and equip them with the latest hardware. At the same time, it is important to ensure cost efficiency and sustainability. From solutions to make better use of existing infrastructure to designing new 'energy efficient' structures, we have successfully helped our clients achieve these goals.

For Arup, it is no longer enough to strive for the sustainable construction of data centers. We want them to be regenerative. Our vision is to transition to a zero-carbon economy, ensuring that data centers make a positive contribution to the world.
