ROLE SUMMARY

The Change Management / Trend Engineer proactively identifies, evaluates, tracks and manages changes and emerging cost and schedule trends on Data Centers construction program before they become major financial or schedule exposures.

The role brings structure and discipline to change management without slowing construction execution, and gives project leadership early visibility of exposure so decisions can be made quickly.

The ideal candidate does more than maintain a change order log or process contractor requests. Effective change management begins well before a formal change order is submitted: this person recognizes potential exposure from evolving engineering, execution, procurement and contractor activity even when the full financial impact is not yet known, and balances commercial discipline with the realities of accelerated construction. Demonstrated change and trend experience on complex projects, sound commercial judgment and field awareness matter more than familiarity with any single software platform.

WORKING ENVIRONMENT

Fast-paced construction program with aggressive schedules, rapidly evolving priorities and multiple contractors working concurrently. Hands-on, site-engaged role.
