Program / Development Manager (Front-End Data Center Development)

Location : Denver, CO (strongly preferred) | Open to exceptional candidates in other U.S. locations

Work Model : Hybrid / On-site preferred (based on proximity to leadership); flexibility available

About the Opportunity (Confidential Client)

Valor Front has been retained by a rapidly growing, national data center owner / operator to recruit a Program / Development Manager to support front-end development execution across multiple U.S. markets.

Our client’s leadership previously scaled and led one of the leading Data Center businesses in the U.S.

This is a high-visibility role designed for a systems-oriented leader who can bring structure, pace, and accountability to early-stage development activities—before construction delivery—including cross-functional coordination, milestone tracking, and executive-level reporting across multiple jurisdictions.

Important : This is not a construction-delivery Project Manager position. This role sits upstream and focuses on the execution of the front-end development program.

What You’ll Do (Key Responsibilities)

Program-manage early-stage development initiatives across multiple markets (parallel workstreams)

Coordinate critical front-end activities such as :

  • Site selection support / land diligence coordination
  • Power entitlement and utility coordination
  • Permitting and jurisdiction-specific development processes

Build and maintain standardized workflows, trackers, and reporting to provide consistent visibility into :

  • Milestones, risks, dependencies, and next steps
  • Serve as a central coordinator between internal leadership and external consultants / advisors
  • Establish repeatable process discipline and document organization across markets
  • What We’re Looking For (Qualifications)

  • Approximately 8–12+ years of experience in program management, development, or large-scale infrastructure environments
  • Demonstrated ability to create and run repeatable processes, reporting, and cadence across complex, multi-stakeholder projects
  • Strong organizational skills and comfort operating in a growth-stage environment with ambiguity
  • Ability to translate complexity into clear executive-level summaries and action plans
  • Data center / mission-critical experience is a plus, but not required (strong transferable infrastructure experience welcomed)
  • Why You Might Find This Role Compelling

  • Join during a significant growth phase with multiple active and upcoming development markets
  • Real ownership : help define how front-end development work is managed, tracked, and scaled
  • Strong alignment with a values-led culture emphasizing integrity, servant leadership, empathy, and work-life balance
  • Compensation & Benefits

    Our client offers a competitive compensation package (base + bonus) and comprehensive benefits.
