Salter Grange has been exclusively retained to appoint an exceptional Project Director to lead the delivery of a flagship hyperscale data centre project in East London.
This is a rare opportunity to take ownership of the MEP package on a £135 million project for one of the world's leading data centre operators. The scheme is being delivered through a major joint venture between two internationally recognised contractors, offering the successful candidate the chance to work on one of the UK's most significant critical infrastructure developments. The London campus continues to expand as one of Europe's largest and most connected data centre campuses.
