Director Compliance & Property Management - Michigan

Director of Compliance & Property Management

As Director of Compliance & Property Management you will lead the administrative, governance, and regulatory management of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure's growing hyperscale data center property portfolio. This role owns property-related strategy and execution across land administration, municipal coordination, regulatory compliance, lease and contract obligations, permitting, environmental and safety oversight, non-critical site services, and long-range property governance.

This leader serves as a key point of contact between Oracle and external stakeholders including municipalities, counties, utilities, landlords, landowners, economic development agencies, and regulatory bodies. The role ensures OCI sites remain compliant, well-governed, operationally supportable, and positioned for future growth.

In addition to core property governance responsibilities, this role also leads adjacent site-support functions including Logistics Managers, Audit & Compliance Managers, Building Admins, and Asset Managers. As a result, this position provides leadership across the broader property and site services organization, ensuring administrative operations, external compliance obligations, asset governance, non-critical vendor scopes, and facility support functions are executed consistently across the portfolio.

The right candidate brings deep experience at the intersection of real estate, land use, entitlements, jurisdictional coordination, environmental and safety compliance, infrastructure operations, asset governance, and site services leadership. This person must be able to manage a complex property portfolio in a fast-moving, high-growth environment while translating regulatory, operational, asset-related, and site-specific issues into clear business recommendations for leadership.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead property management, compliance, and site services strategy and execution across a portfolio of hyperscale data center sites, ensuring strong governance from land control through development, operational handoff, and ongoing site support.
• Serve as Oracle's primary point of contact for property-related governance matters involving local municipalities, counties, permitting agencies, utilities, landlords, landowners, and other jurisdictional stakeholders.

• Partner with local municipalities and regulatory bodies on property-related matters including zoning, permitting, inspections, environmental requirements, life safety, land use restrictions, access issues, and operating compliance.
• Support site readiness and long-term operability by coordinating property-related approvals, renewals, amendments, and regulatory obligations across active and future data center sites.
• Ensure compliance with lease terms, development agreements, covenants, easements, licensing requirements, environmental commitments, and jurisdictional obligations tied to each property.
• Identify and manage property-related risks involving land use, environmental exposure, safety concerns, community issues, access limitations, utility coordination, and regulatory opposition; develop mitigation plans and escalate when appropriate.
• Lead the broader site services organization supporting property and administrative operations, including Logistics Managers, Audit & Compliance Managers, Building Admins, and Asset Managers.
• Oversee logistics-related site support activities such as material flow coordination, receiving and storage practices, inventory governance, vendor coordination, and operational logistics processes that support site readiness and continuity.
• Oversee audit and compliance management activities related to site governance, documentation readiness, internal controls, audit support, regulatory records, and compliance tracking across the property portfolio.
• Lead building administration functions supporting day-to-day administrative operations, office and site-support coordination, visitor and service support processes, documentation flow, and general site business operations.
• Lead asset management practices across the portfolio, including governance for non-critical site assets, lifecycle visibility, record accuracy, disposition coordination, maintenance/support ownership clarity, and alignment between asset records and operational site needs.
• Oversee portfolio-level asset tracking, accountability, and coordination processes to improve visibility into asset condition, ownership, serviceability, utilization, and replacement planning for site-support infrastructure and related property assets.
• Oversee non-critical property maintenance and associated vendor scopes, including areas such as landscaping, parking lots, drainage or retention features, easement areas, fencing, and other externally maintained site-support infrastructure.
• Partner closely with internal teams across real estate, legal, development, design, construction, facilities, utilities, EHS, tax, finance, procurement, public policy, and site operations to ensure aligned and timely execution.
• Oversee and maintain portfolio-level tracking mechanisms for critical property milestones, permit obligations, regulatory deadlines, renewals, environmental commitments, inspections, compliance dependencies, asset records, and site service deliverables.
• Support site expansion efforts through amendments, re-entitlements, parcel adjustments, updated permits, revised land-use approvals, and associated stakeholder coordination.
• Drive process standardization, documentation rigor, and governance mechanisms that improve visibility, predictability, audit readiness, and scalability across the property and site services portfolio.
• Provide executive-ready reporting on portfolio health, property-related risks, regulatory exposure, municipal engagement, audit status, logistics readiness, asset governance, administrative support health, and critical-path dependencies.
• Lead, build, or influence teams responsible for property administration, site governance, entitlement coordination, municipal engagement, compliance management, logistics support, building administration, asset management, and external property-support service execution, depending on organizational structure.
• Represent Oracle professionally in meetings with external property stakeholders, local officials, agencies, consultants, landlords, and community-facing partners.
