Commissioning Director – Nordic Data Center Platform

About the role

A well-funded global data center developer is building its Nordic platform and needs a Commissioning Director to own the function across the region, based in Finland. This is a build-it seat: you will set the commissioning strategy, write the standards, select and manage Cx agents and vendors, and grow the team as the estate scales. The role suits someone who has topped out at a major operator or EPC and wants to own a function rather than maintain one.

Key responsibilities

• Lead commissioning across the Nordic portfolio, from design review through to handover
• Build and own the Cx and QA/QC framework, standards and documentation from the ground up
• Hire and develop the regional commissioning team
• Manage relationships with Cx agents, MEP contractors and the wider delivery team
• Act as the senior commissioning authority across multiple concurrent builds

Required profile

• Strong track record delivering commissioning on hyperscale or large-scale colocation data centers
• Experience at Commissioning Manager or Director level, ideally across multiple sites or regions
• The credibility to set standards and the appetite to build something rather than fit into existing processes
• Comfort operating in a fast-moving, greenfield environment
• Nordic market experience is an advantage, not a requirement

The role is permanent, with a senior package open for discussion.
