Apply for the Strategic Account Manager – Data Centre Infrastructure
Location: Shoreditch
Job Description:

London or Dublin | Competitive salary + uncapped commission

An international technology infrastructure business is looking for an experienced data-centre professional to develop several strategically important customer relationships, including a major global hyperscaler.

You may come from account management, business development or technical sales. Alternatively you could have progressed through data-centre operations, project delivery, design or estimating and now want to move into a strategic commercial role.

The role

  • Build relationships with hyperscalers, general contractors, M&E contractors, consultants and delivery partners.
  • Identify opportunities across major data-centre construction, fit-out and infrastructure programmes.
  • Develop and execute strategic account plans.
  • Position the business early within customer investment and project pipelines.
  • Coordinate internal technical, estimating, commercial and operational teams.
  • Progress opportunities through proposal, negotiation, award and delivery.

About you

  • Direct experience within the data-centre industry.
  • Strong understanding of how major data-centre projects are influenced and delivered.
  • Experience working with customers, contractors, consultants or other organisations within the data-centre ecosystem.
  • Strong relationship-building and stakeholder-management skills.
  • Commercial awareness and the ability to identify new opportunities.
  • A proactive, hands-on approach.

You don’t need to be selling the same services currently or to have followed a traditional sales career path. What matters is your data-centre knowledge, industry credibility and ability to build commercially valuable relationships.
