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).

Practical delivery orientation: understands what it takes to make "ready to operate" objective and repeatable without turning the function into a project office.

Job Title: BIM Lead Location: Based in our Bristol or London office with hybrid working available Rate: Competitive, up to 485 /PAYE or 655 UMB DOE Duration: initial CED 31/12/2026 Vacancy Overview: Are you looking for a career which is rewarding, at the cutting edge of project development and where you can really make a difference? Come and join our expanding Sizewell C (SZC) team and work on one of the most exciting and largest megaprojects in the UK, whilst being at the forefront of the UK's climate change agenda and energy policy. Following on from the success of Hinkley Point C (HPC), the SZC Project is a nuclear new build project in Suffolk, which has obtained planning approval and Government financing support. The project has started construction and is now seeking private investment. When completed, it will provide dependable electricity to 6 million homes for 60 years, which along with renewables, will support Britain to achieve Net Zero by 2050. Job Purpose / Overview One of the major drivers behind the ambition to for "digital by default" is the need to meet the UK's Information Mandate, which was previously known as the 'BIM Mandate'. SZC will be constructed over the next decade and will be operational for many decades into the future. Over this time period, the construction and operations industry will be transformed by the multiple use cases enabled by a more digital enterprise, including paperless construction, automated data led decision making and operational digital twins. These use cases ensure we are future proofing our business, but for SZC are not the primary aim of the drive to meet the Mandate. Experience from HPC has highlighted several areas where enhanced, but simplified ways of working can enable significant developments in business performance, and ensuring we are retrieving the correct data, in the correct formats, at the correct time, both internally and from the supply chain will play a crucial part in the successful delivery of the project. The role of 'BIM Lead' takes on the specific workstream relating to all things engineering data, and the management of it across all domains within SZC and its supply chain. Working closely together with counterparts across the wider business (specifically the Data & Information Management (D&IM) team), the 'BIM Lead' will be the engineering focal point for the strategic future vision of engineering use cases for BIM, and also be responsible for ensuring that the data being requested will be of the correct standard to be used as trusted source of information to de-risk the program.
