World Wide Technology (WWT) is a global technology solutions provider leading the AI and digital revolution — over $30 billion in annual revenue, and growing fast. We combine strategy, execution and partnership to help the world’s biggest organisations move faster on digital transformation. Our Advanced Technology Center lets clients test and prove new tech before we deploy it at scale, backed by our own global warehousing, distribution and integration capabilities.
In Australia, that scale is already showing up: multi-billion-dollar data center projects underway, and more major AI and technology projects in the pipeline. Just three years in, Australia is WWT’s fastest-growing region worldwide — and we’re only getting started. This is your chance to help build something from the ground up. Join a tight-knit, values-led team that hires for character as much as capability, and grow your career as the region grows around you.
We’re hiring: Strategic Program Manager, Data Center and AI
This is a senior delivery role for someone who has taken large, complex infrastructure builds from order to customer acceptance and wants to do it at AI scale. You’ll own multi-site data center and AI programs valued at $25M+ each, leading a matrixed team of 50+ across WWT, OEM, integrator, logistics, field and customer organisations. The role will be based in Sydney or Melbourne with most of the week spent at customer sites.
What you’ll do
- Own program outcomes across receive, rack, cable, configure, validate and customer acceptance, with transparent exit criteria at every stage
- Manage integrated milestones, dependencies, risks and escalations across data halls, sites and workstreams, and drive them to closure
- Reconcile ordered, received, installed, validated and accepted quantities against the bill of materials and statement of work
- Hold OEM, integrator,
logistics and field partners accountable for delivery commitments and quality
- Own program budget, forecast, revenue, cost and margin, taking corrective action to meet financial commitments
- Run program governance and executive reporting from live delivery data, and drive adoption of our delivery system as the single source of truth
- Manage scope drift through formal change control, lead commercial negotiations, and develop and estimate client statements of work
- Lead and coach Project Managers, own staffing and resource plans, and build delivery discipline across the team
What you’ll bring
- Hands-on experience delivering physical data center, AI, HPC, GPU or compute-cluster builds, including data hall deployment and customer acceptance
- 10+ years of delivery experience, including 5+ years leading complex, multi-site programs
- Proven ownership of programs valued at $25M+, with full budget, forecast, revenue, cost and margin accountability
- Experience leading matrixed teams, Project Managers, OEMs, integrators, logistics providers and field crews across multiple sites
- Strong financial acumen, plus a solid grasp of contracts, change control, procurement and negotiation
- Executive-level communication, presentation and facilitation skills
- Willingness to travel, maintain regular on-site presence, and support Australia/APAC delivery hours when required
- A Bachelor’s degree in a related field, or equivalent experience
Nice to have
- PMP certification
- 1–3 years of sales or business development experience, particularly in statement-of-work development and estimation
- Experience with field capture and workflow platforms such as Smartsheet
