Job DescriptionJob Description

Assistant Project Manager — Data Center Construction

Location: Central Ohio | On-Site

 

Launch or Accelerate Your Career in Construction

 

Want to help build one of the most advanced facilities in the country?

 

A leading construction organization is hiring several Assistant Project Managers to support a high-profile data center project in Central Ohio. This is a hands-on opportunity to gain real project experience, work alongside experienced leaders, and help deliver large-scale construction from the ground up.

 

You do not need deep construction experience. We are looking for motivated, organized, and driven individuals who want to learn how complex projects get built and grow into future leaders.

 

If you enjoy fast-paced environments, solving problems, and seeing tangible results from your work, this role provides a strong entry point into the construction industry.

 

What You’ll Do

You will work directly with Project Managers and field teams to help plan, coordinate, and execute a large construction project from start to finish.

  • Support day-to-day project operations and coordination
  • Help track schedules, costs, and project progress
  • Assist with documentation, reporting, and project communication
  • Work closely with field teams, vendors, and project partners
  • Participate in planning and coordination meetings
  • Learn how major construction projects are delivered from pre-construction through completion
  • Gain exposure to real project decision-making and execution

This is a highly collaborative role with strong mentorship and development.

 

Who This Role Is Great For

  • Early-career professionals looking to accelerate their careers or break into construction or project management
  • Recent graduates in business, engineering, construction, or related fields
  • Individuals from operations, manufacturing, military, logistics, or technical environments
  • Candidates who enjoy hands-on work and problem solving
  • Organized, detail-oriented individuals who want real responsibility early in their career

Any prior construction trade experience is a plus, but not required.

 

What You Bring

  • Strong work ethic and desire to learn
  • Ability to stay organized and manage multiple priorities
  • Clear communication and team mindset
  • Interest in working on-site and being close to project activity
  • Bachelor’s degree but not required for strong candidates

 

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Work on a high-profile data center project shaping critical infrastructure
  • Gain hands-on experience early in your career
  • Learn directly from experienced project leaders
  • Clear path into long-term construction and project leadership roles
  • Stable organization with a strong track record of developing talent
  • Fast-paced environment where you see the impact of your work every day
