(If Associate's Degree, must have minimum 6 years work experience) Bonus Points If: * Uptime Institute Accredited Tier Designer (ATD) or equivalent data centre facilities design accreditation * Engineering background (electrical, mechanical, or building services) - a formal engineering qualification or equivalent practical depth in M&E systems is a strong signal for this position * Experience with CAD or specialist data centre design tooling (AutoCAD, Revit, or DCIM platforms) for producing rack layout drawings, floor plans, and cable design documentation * Sector experience in financial services, colocation, public sector, or large enterprise environments where data centre facilities work intersects with complex lease structures, change control, and regulatory requirements ## Description We are seeking an experienced Manager, DC Facilities: Assess, Engineer & Design to lead data centre facilities assessments, engineering design, and rationalisation programmes for large enterprise clients. This is a hands-on technical role for someone who understands the physical layer of enterprise infrastructure in depth - from power and cooling architecture through white-space planning, cabling design, and structured cabling standards - and who can translate that engineering expertise into facility assessments, consolidation plans, exit strategies, and sustainability roadmaps. You will work across active data centre environments, bridging the physical and IT infrastructure worlds to help clients make informed, financially grounded decisions about their facilities estate. The Work: * Conduct data centre facilities assessments - evaluating power infrastructure, cooling systems, white-space utilisation, cabling, physical security, and overall facility condition against current standards and client requirements * Design and engineer power and cooling solutions - including UPS topology, PDU configuration, generator capacity, CRAC/CRAH and in-row cooling layouts, airflow management, and hot/cold aisle containment for new-build, expansion, and refurbishment projects * Develop white-space and cabling designs - producing rack layout plans, cable pathway designs, structured cabling specifications, and capacity models that optimise usable space and support operational maintainability * Lead consolidation and exit planning - assessing workload footprints, sequencing decommissioning activity, managing equipment disposition, and coordinating the physical migration of infrastructure as part of broader data centre exit programmes * Develop sustainability plans - assessing PUE, carbon footprint, and energy efficiency across the facilities estate; designing improvement roadmaps aligned to client sustainability targets and emerging regulatory requirements * Produce technical documentation and client deliverables - assessment reports, engineering design packages, as-built documentation, and facilities roadmaps with sufficient rigour and clarity for both technical and executive audiences * Collaborate with IT infrastructure and programme teams - ensuring facilities designs and constraints are fully integrated with server, network, and storage deployment plans, and that physical infrastructure readiness is not the critical path risk in broader transformation programmes Travel may be required for this role. The amount of travel will vary from 25% to 100% depending on business need and client requirements. ## Related Videos - [Modern Data Architectures need Software Engineering](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1030-modern-data-architectures-need-software-engineering) - [DevOps at Netflix](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/270-devops-at-netflix) - [WebAssembly Revolution: Elevating JavaScript's Reach and Performance](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1149-webassembly-revolution-elevating-javascript-s-reach-and-performance) - [The Sustainability Race: AI's Promises, Pitfalls and Potential](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100155-the-sustainability-race-ai-s-promises-pitfalls-and-potential) - [Designing How Work Feels: The Science Behind Sanofi’s Workplace Experience](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1848-designing-how-work-feels-the-science-behind-sanofi-s-workplace-experience) - [Leading with Reliability: Applying SRE Principles to Build Stronger Engineering Organizations](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100185-leading-with-reliability-applying-sre-principles-to-build-stronger-engineering-organizations) ## Related Articles - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [A Guide to Green Tech and Green IT Careers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/374-a-guide-to-green-tech-and-green-it-careers) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [Data Engineer Salary UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/253-data-engineer-salary-uk) - [Top-Paying Tech Jobs (with Salaries)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/372-top-paying-tech-jobs-with-salaries) - [Best Companies to work for in London: Top 25 Companies in 2023](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/187-best-companies-to-work-for-in-london-top-25-companies-in-2023)
