Project QC Engineer - Data Centre
Quality doesn't fail at handover. It fails months earlier when inspections slip, data gets messy and issues aren't closed properly.
We're hiring a Project QC Engineer to manage the detail that keeps data centre projects under control. This is a site-based role focused on QC deliverables, test packs, walkdowns, snag tracking and reporting — the work that turns construction progress into a clean, defensible handover.
If you like structure, accountability and seeing systems signed off properly, you'll fit in.
As a Project QC Engineer, you'll be responsible for developing, managing and maintaining quality control deliverables across the project. You'll work closely with construction, commissioning, BIM, EHS,



supply chain and client teams to ensure inspections are planned, issues are tracked, and data is accurate.
Lead by example in ethics, EHS, teamwork, cultural awareness and quality behaviours.
Promote a positive quality culture and a "right first time" mindset on site.
Comply with all project EHS requirements including PPE, permits and procedures.
Support development of project-specific method statements where required.
Build effective working relationships with planning, engineering, operations, commissioning, EHS, supply chain and client teams.
Inspection, Testing & Test Packs
Develop, maintain and manage Inspection & Test Plans and inspection checklists.
Monitor weld traceability including weld logs, welder qualifications, heat maps, visual inspections and NDT requirements.
Develop and agree test pack lists and contents with relevant stakeholders.
Define system limits and boundaries for test packs and track each pack through completion.
Compile hard-copy and digital test packs for walkdowns and final handover.
Walkdowns, Snags & Systems
Lead third-party walkdowns in line with ITPs and commissioning plans.
Carry out internal pre-test walkdowns using schematics, SLDs and P&IDs; to confirm design compliance.
Track issues and snags, driving close‑out with the wider project team.
Review benchmark and First of Kind installations and report progress.
BIM, Data & Reporting
Liaise with the BIM team on field space creation and custom project attributes.
Ensure data integrity across BIM 360 / ACC platforms,



with correct issue ownership, categorisation, due dates and responsibilities.
Implement QR code tagging and tracking for free-issue and procured equipment.
Monitor Power BI dashboards for accurate reporting on issues, inspections and progress.
Compliance, Improvement & Sustainability
Monitor calibration and certification of inspection, measuring and test equipment.
Manage system, equipment and asset tagging, including red, yellow and green status.
Coordinate with the commissioning team on L3-L5 startup and commissioning schedules.
Complete root cause analysis and monitor corrective actions where required.

Encourage and support lessons learned during execution and facilitate workshops to prevent repeat issues.
Develop BCAR, LEED and BREEAM plans in line with ITP requirements.
Organise required inspections and compile certificates for inclusion in handover packs.
Recognise operatives and teams delivering quality excellence on site.
Experience in a QC Engineer or quality inspection role on large construction projects.
Exposure to data centres, pharmaceuticals or other regulated environments.
Strong understanding of inspections, test packs, walkdowns and handover processes.
Confidence working across multidisciplinary site teams.
Major data centre project in Milan with technical complexity.
A hands-on role close to commissioning and handover.
Long-term opportunities across a growing European project portfolio.
If you want to build serious QC experience on serious projects, this role does exactly that.
