Per-MW pricing, regional variance, and cost drivers for owners scoping hyperscale & AI builds.
Salary benchmarks across the 14 mission-critical disciplines.
Hire Campus Operations Managers who run multi-building critical campuses — shift coverage, EOP/MOP discipline, vendor and service contracts, incident command, and uptime SLAs across data halls or facilities that never close. Live-environment leadership verified.
A structured process for the hire that owns the campus when everything is normal — and commands it when something trips at 2 a.m.
30-minute call. Align on campus scale, building count and load, shift model, vendor posture, growth pipeline, and start date.
Within 2 weeks we introduce 3–5 Campus Operations Managers with live multi-building history at comparable scale. References from prior regional and site leadership included.
Every placement carries a replacement guarantee. If the hire fails within the warranty window, we run a no-fee replacement search.
Campus operations is a step change from running one building: multiple facility teams, shared central plant, phased construction next to live load, and an SLA that doesn’t care which building the fault started in. We verify leadership at that scale.
Every candidate has verified multi-building operational command — team structures, shift coverage, and central-plant coordination on a named campus.
Reference-verified incident response: EOP execution, escalation, customer communication, and after-action discipline on real events.
Verified experience protecting live load while expansion phases energize next door — change control, LOTO, and construction-interface discipline.
Below is what every candidate has documented before you meet them:
Building count, IT load or occupancy, and availability history verified with prior leadership.
Chief engineers, facility managers, and technician shifts led — hiring, training matrices, and retention verified.
Procedure programs, drill cadence, and change-management rigor confirmed with references.
Service contracts, OEM agreements, and multimillion-dollar opex budgets managed to plan.
BMS/EPMS, DCIM, and CMMS (Maximo, eMaint) command — plus NFPA 70E and OSHA 30 grounding.
Campus, senior-campus, and regional-track comp bands aligned before finalists are introduced.
We’ll help scope the role on the call — campus scale, shift model, and growth pipeline.
Time to shortlist is typically 2 weeks from scoping call. Total time to placement is typically 3–4 weeks. Proven multi-building leaders are scarce; most searches include a relocation option.
US base salaries typically run $130k–$180k, with senior campus leads on hyperscale sites at $165k–$210k+ plus bonus, and equity at cloud operators. We confirm current bands for your metro during scoping.
A Data Center Operations Manager typically owns one facility. The Campus Operations Manager owns several — shared central plant, cross-building teams, and campus-level vendor and budget command — usually with facility managers reporting in.
Many strong profiles are Navy nuke or power-generation alumni who grew through critical facilities; others rose through chief engineer ranks. We verify leadership scale and incident command either way.
Yes. Every Campus Operations Manager placement carries a replacement guarantee. Guarantee terms are confirmed in writing at engagement start.
Yes. Multi-hire builds (campus manager + facility managers + chief engineers + technicians) route through embedded recruiting or RPO.
30-minute scoping conversation. We’ll review the Campus Operations Manager role you need, campus scale, shift model, and growth pipeline — then recommend the right hire path and start sourcing.
