About the Role

The Company is seeking a Vice President to spearhead the development of a new data center powered land strategy. This entrepreneurial role is focused on the early-stage intersection of power, land, and data center development, with the primary responsibility of leading the national strategy to identify, secure, and de-risk land for future data center projects. The successful candidate will be tasked with sourcing and evaluating powered land opportunities, building and maintaining relationships with key industry participants, and leading the negotiation and acquisition processes. Additionally, the role involves evaluating capital requirements, risks, and potential returns, as well as coordinating the necessary development activities to de-risk sites for future monetization. Candidates for this role should have a background in data center site selection, powered land, site acquisition, utility engagement, or early-stage development. The position offers the opportunity to shape the strategy, originate opportunities nationally, and play a pivotal role in the value created. The ideal candidate will have a strong network and experience in the industry, and will be expected to establish the processes and market intelligence required to build the strategy into a dedicated business line over time. The role is not focused on vertical construction but rather on the strategic aspects of data center development, and the candidate should be prepared for a high level of autonomy in decision-making and a significant impact on the company's investment and development platform.
