Job Description
Verda is expanding its physical infrastructure footprint and we are bringing new data centre capacity online through colocation facilities, third-party partnerships, and strategic agreements across Spain. Every new site we open starts with someone finding it, qualifying it, contracting it, and getting it ready to receive hardware. That person is you. We are looking for a Data Centre Expansion Manager (Spain) to own the end-to-end process of identifying and delivering new colocation and data centre capacity within the Spanish market. This is a focused, commercially and technically intensive role. You will spend significant time reviewing inbound site proposals and opportunities, conducting due diligence on colocation providers, and driving procurement processes to close.
