Technical Project Manager - NexGen Cloud

Technical Project Manager

Location: London (hybrid) — global travel required

Department: Operations

Reporting to: COO

THE ROLE

NexGen Cloud is closing enterprise GPU cluster deals at pace — complex, multi-stakeholder programmes spanning commercial, legal, procurement, data centre, and engineering. Delivery coordination has so far sat with one person, who is at capacity. This isn’t a backfill. It’s a net-new hire to own customer delivery as a function.

Sitting within Operations and reporting to the COO, you’ll take cluster deployment projects from contract signature through to customer handover — coordinating across Solutions Architecture, Procurement, Datacentre Planning, Network & Infrastructure Engineering, and Commercial. You’ll also build the PMO infrastructure the business currently lacks: governance frameworks, RAID logs, executive reporting, and delivery standards that scale.

This is a high-ownership role in a business that is winning deals faster than it can systematise delivery. The person who takes it will leave a visible mark on how NexGen Cloud operates.

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING

• Own end-to-end delivery of AI and HPC cluster deployment projects — from commercial handoff through procurement, data centre readiness, hardware delivery, and customer handover.
• Coordinate cross-functional delivery teams across Solutions Architecture, Engineering, Procurement, Datacentre Planning, and Commercial — driving accountability, not just tracking it.
• Be on the ground when it matters: on-site at data centres during hardware delivery, managing logistics, coordinating suppliers, and keeping momentum where it’s easiest to lose it.
• Run customer-facing steering committees and project updates — this is the face of NexGen’s delivery function externally, managing relationships from day one.
• Build the governance infrastructure from scratch: RAID logs, milestone tracking, project templates, and executive dashboards that give the business real visibility across active programmes.
• Coordinate financing and commercial approval milestones alongside technical delivery — comfortable interfacing with legal and finance, not just engineering.
• Mentor project owners and department leads as PMO practices embed across the business.

ABOUT YOU

Essential

• Proven track record delivering complex, multi-stakeholder technology infrastructure projects end-to-end — with specific projects you personally owned and closed.
• Solid grounding in data centre infrastructure — power, networking, hardware procurement, physical deployment — enough to coordinate technical experts credibly, without being one.
• Experience managing commercial and contractual workstreams alongside technical delivery; comfortable working directly with legal and finance.
