We are the world's trusted infrastructure consulting firm, partnering with clients to solve the world’s most complex challenges and build legacies for future generations.
There has never been a better time to be at AECOM. With accelerating infrastructure investment worldwide, our services are in great demand. We invite you to bring your bold ideas and big dreams and become part of a global team of over 50,000 planners, designers, engineers, scientists, digital innovators, program and construction managers and other professionals delivering projects that create a positive and tangible impact around the world.
We're one global team driven by our common purpose to deliver a better world. Join us.
We are a multidisciplinary team working with Data Centre clients across UK & Ireland and Europe, on both Hyperscale and Colocation projects. These projects are led from our specialist Data Centre team based in the UK in conjunction with our local teams across Europe who ensure localisation and permitting delivery. Additionally, our other global design teams provide resource and capability to the projects.
We are seeking an experienced Architect/ Architecture Technologist/ Lead Consultant, with a strong technical background in the DC sector who can lead multi-disciplinary architectural and engineering projects at a Technical Director level; one who can establish, build and maintain strong relationships with key clients both through successful project delivery but also through building a trusted Client Account Manager (CAM) approach. Another key responsibility will be assisting the sector lead in identifying future pipeline and securing opportunities to meet as a minimum the targets allocated to these key accounts.
This will require being across multiple projects at once, whilst at the same time being sufficiently involved to be able to identify potential issues and troubleshoot before they materialise, to ensure the right level and capability of resource are deployed on a project. You will be intrinsic to the bidding and pricing of new opportunities, specifically on CSA activities and ensuring that those opportunities deliver to the ‘as sold’ fees and margins. The role will take the lead in internal commercial and contractual governance for the key client/s projects, ensuring compliance to internal process, managing risk to AECOM and ensuring profitable delivery.
The location of the role is flexible within the UK/ Ireland; however, it would be preferable if it was located in (or sufficiently close and aligned to) one of our hubs of expertise – Manchester, Dublin, Belfast. The role will require travel within the UK&I and Europe.
You will already be strong in technical design content, with an Architectural and Lead Designer bias, together with a proven capability in design management, digital technologies, and design workflow. They will be expected to oversee design activities and the production of design information and maintain the level of quality that is expected throughout these projects. They will have to manage this delivery to very demanding timelines and programmes with immovable deadlines, as is typical in that sector.
You will be working closely with the multi-disciplinary design teams, clients, and contractors in the UK and Europe, so excellent communication skills are essential.
