Director, Automation & Orchestration (Global) page is loaded Director, Automation & Orchestration (Global)locations: London, Englandtime type: Full timeposted on: Posted Todayjob requisition id: R21643# About Vantage Data Centers Vantage Data Centers powers, cools, protects and connects the technology of the world's well-known hyperscalers, cloud providers and large enterprises. Developing and operating across North America, EMEA and Asia Pacific, Vantage has evolved data center design in innovative ways to deliver dramatic gains in reliability, efficiency and sustainability in flexible environments that can scale as quickly as the market demands.The Product team at Vantage defines and stewards our global product platform: the customer outcomes we aim to deliver, the reference designs and standards that make delivery repeatable, and the learning loops that turn each deployment into an upgrade for the next one. We work in partnership with Engineering, Delivery, Operations, Sustainability, Sales, Site Selection, and Business Development, aligning priorities and trade-offs while preserving clear functional ownership for design execution, construction delivery, and site operations. Product's role is to create clarity, consistency, and leverage at Vantage scale.Position OverviewThe Director, Automation & Orchestration is the product leader responsible for making delivery repeatable at scale through clear standards, frameworks, and guardrails. This role helps Vantage deploy next-generation data centers faster and more predictably by enabling a platform approach: consistent interfaces, objective readiness and handover expectations, and repeatable validation practices that reduce rework and commissioning risk.This also role partners with customers and other external stakeholders to shape technical solutions at the interface between grid conditions, facility capability, and customer IT needs, and to translate those needs into scalable platform standards.This leader does not run construction projects. They define the system that deployment teams, Delivery, and Operations execute: platform standards, qualification and test principles, readiness definitions, and feeding closed-loop learning from the field back into product improvements.What Success Looks Like Platform delivery standards and readiness definitions are adopted and used consistently, enabling faster deployment with less rework and fewer late-stage surprises. Cross-functional teams (Product Deployment, Delivery, Operations, Engineering) operate with clearer expectations and improved throughput, reducing bespoke decisions and reinvention per site. Commissioning and operational handover become more objective and predictable through consistent definitions of "ready," earlier validation, and better evidence. Supplier integration becomes easier to scale because requirements for interoperability, telemetry, and documentation are clearer and more consistent. Lessons learned translate into platform improvements over time, strengthening outcomes and reducing recurring issues.Key Responsibilities Define and evolve platform standards, reference practices, and guardrails that enable repeatable delivery across a worldwide footprint. Establish practical readiness and handover expectations that improve predictability, reduce rework, and strengthen operational outcomes. Set principles and expectations for qualification and validation prior to broad deployment, with emphasis on reducing field defects and compressing site commissioning time. Lead targeted research and development in collaboration with internal and external subject matter experts, using pilots and first deployments to inform scalable standards, qualification expectations, and deployment guardrails. Define high-level requirements for supplier interoperability, telemetry access, bounded control access, documentation, and evidence quality, partnering with Procurement and Engineering as needed. Partner with Product Operations to ensure delivery and operational learnings are captured through standard cadences and metrics, and translate the relevant insights into updates to industrialized delivery standards, readiness expectations, and supplier requirements. Influence effectively across Product Management, Product Engineering, Product Deployment, Engineering, Delivery, and Operations, and external stakeholders to drive adoption without creating unnecessary bureaucracy.Experience and Background 10+ years of experience in environments where repeatable delivery, systems integration, commissioning readiness, and operational handover quality are critical (for example mission-critical infrastructure, industrial automation, data centers, advanced manufacturing, aerospace, or similarly complex engineered systems). Demonstrated success establishing standards, operating frameworks, or scalable ways of working that improve delivery outcomes across multiple sites, programs, or geographies. Experience partnering across Engineering, Delivery, Operations, and suppliers to drive consistent adoption of common practices and measurable improvement. Experience leading and developing teams and influencing senior stakeholders in complex, cross-functional organizations.Skills and Competencies Systems thinking: ability to simplify complexity through clear interfaces, standards, and guardrails. Executive communication: can translate complex technical and operational topics into crisp priorities, trade-offs, and decisions. Practical delivery orientation: understands what it takes to make "ready to operate" objective and repeatable without turning the function into a project office. Comfort operating at the intersection of physical infrastructure, controls/automation, and operational handover outcomes. Strong collaboration and influence skills across global, multi-stakeholder environments.Preferred Qualifications Experience in data center infrastructure, mission-critical facilities, industrialized delivery, or other capital-intensive engineered products. Familiarity with structured readiness, commissioning, validation, and operational handover practices at scale. Experience working in a global standards model with regional execution teams, balancing consistency with practical regional needs.We operate with No Ego and No Arrogance. We work to build each other up and support one another, appreciating each other's strengths and respecting each other's weaknesses. We find joy in our work and each other, actively seeking opportunities to inject fun into what we do. Our hard and efficient work is rewarded with an above market total compensation package. We offer a comprehensive suite of health and welfare, retirement, and paid leave benefits exceeding local expectations.Throughout the year, the advantage of being part of the Vantage team is evident with an array of benefits, recognition, training and development, and the knowledge that your contribution adds value to the company and our community.Vantage Data Centers is an Equal Opportunity EmployerVantage Data Centers does not accept unsolicited resumes from search firm agencies. Fees will not be paid in the event a candidate submitted by a recruiter without an agreement in place is hired; such resumes will be deemed the sole property of Vantage Data Centers.
