About Nscale
At Nscale, we are building the infrastructure for Europe’s AI revolution. Nscale are developing cutting-edge sovereign generative AI solutions, powered by a new generation of high-performance, sustainable data centres and GPUs built specifically for AI workloads.
The growth of artificial intelligence is driving unprecedented global demand for compute and GPU infrastructure. Nscale is positioned at the heart of this transformation — building the platforms that will enable the next decade of innovation.
Nscale are working closely with the world’s most advanced AI technology providers, integrating next-gen compute hardware and GPU clusters in both partner and Nscale built facilities. This is an opportunity to join Nscale’s journey, play a key role in delivering transformative AI infrastructure, and help shape a company designed to scale rapidly across Europe and beyond.
About the Role
We are seeking a Construction Manager to support on-site delivery of Nscale’s Glomfjord data centre project and associated enabling works. This is a site-based owner-side role responsible for overseeing construction execution from site preparation through commissioning and turnover.
The role will act as Nscale’s client-side construction lead, overseeing and challenging the main contractor on field execution, sequencing, safety, quality and progress.
You will oversee day-to-day field execution, coordinate contractors and trades, maintain safety and quality standards, and keep the project on schedule and aligned to budget. This role is well suited to a construction leader with deep experience delivering complex infrastructure, industrial, or mission-critical projects in the field. A college degree is not required; we value practical construction leadership, sound judgement, and a proven ability to deliver.
What You’ll be Doing
- Coordinate and oversee on-site construction activities across site preparation, structural, electrical, mechanical, commissioning, and turnover phases.
- Oversee and coordinate with the general contractors, subcontractors, and trade partners, ensuring work is properly sequenced and delivered to specification.
- Support construction schedule management by validating field progress, identifying critical-path risks and driving corrective action with the contractors.
- Support cost control and change management by providing field-based progress validation, construction input and early identification of scope, productivity or sequencing impacts.
- Promote and enforce a strong safety culture in line with Norwegian HSE regulations, project SHA/HSE plans, permit-to-work requirements and Nscale standards
- Drive quality control across disciplines, including inspections, punch lists, testing, and commissioning of critical power and cooling systems.
- Serve as a primary on-site contact for project stakeholders, engineers, vendors, inspectors, and local authorities.
- Review drawings, RFIs, and submittals; resolve field conflicts and coordinate engineering clarifications.
- Coordinate procurement and logistics for materials and long-lead equipment to support uninterrupted progress.
- Support permitting, inspections, regulatory compliance, and local jurisdiction coordination.
- Report progress, risks, blockers and milestones to the Delivery Director and wider project leadership.
About You (Skills / Qualifications)
- Extensive progressive construction management experience, including significant time leading large-scale, complex, industrial, infrastructure, or mission-critical projects in the field.
- Experience in building data centres, power plants, industrial facilities, or other large mission-critical infrastructure.
- Strong working knowledge of electrical, mechanical, and structural systems, with the ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specifications.
- Demonstrated success managing schedules, budgets, contractors, and multiple trades on active job sites.
- Deep understanding of construction safety standards and OSHA HSE requirements, with a record of leading safe job sites.
- Strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to make sound decisions quickly in the field.
- Ability to work full-time on site in Glomfjord, Norway.
- Fluent in English; Norwegian advantageous.
- Experience working in Norway with contractors, local authorities, inspections, permit-to-work processes and construction-phase HSE/SHA requirements is strongly advantageous.
