4 strong match(es) (fit ≥7​/​10) · 1 borderline

Tier 2  (2)

8​/​10
Construction Director, Data Centre Capacity Delivery
Amazon Inc.  ·  The Rocks, Sydney  ·  💰 $320k - $420k (appears to be annual salary range)  ·  Permanent (implied); location The Rocks Sydney suggests onsite/hybrid  ·  via Adzuna
Amazon Web Services Infrastructure Services—designs, delivers, and operates all AWS global data centre infrastructure; keeping the cloud running for hyperscale customers.
Verdict: Excellent sector match—AWS data centre infrastructure delivery aligns strongly with Josh's critical infrastructure, multi-discipline coordination, and large-scale portfolio management experience. The Director title represents a significant step up from his current Regional PM role.
Why it fits Josh
  • Direct translation: CCEP's multi-discipline infrastructure delivery (civil, structural, electrical, RF, fibre) maps perfectly to data centre M&E, power, cooling, and network infrastructure build-out
  • Scale and portfolio management: Josh currently manages ~$90M+ infrastructure portfolio across 120+ sites; AWS DC construction operates at similar or greater capital intensity
  • Mission-critical mindset: Public-safety network delivery (Police/Fire/Ambulance) shares the same zero-downtime, reliability-first culture as hyperscale data centre operations
  • Vendor and stakeholder orchestration: Leading construction vendors and NSW Govt stakeholders directly prepares him for AWS's complex contractor ecosystem and regulatory environment
Watch-outs
  • Seniority leap: 'Director' title typically implies P&L ownership, multi-state/regional accountability, and leadership of multiple senior PMs—Josh currently leads 2 direct + 6 matrixed; this is a material step up in organisational scope
  • Hyperscale data centre-specific experience: While his infrastructure skills transfer well, he hasn't directly delivered purpose-built data centre facilities (though his telco sites include comparable technical systems)
  • No formal tertiary degree: AWS Director roles often expect degree + extensive experience; his in-progress PRINCE2 and Diploma may be viewed as lighter credentials for this level
7​/​10
Facilities Operations Centre (FOC) Engineer, AWS
Amazon  ·  Sydney, Sydney Region  ·  via Adzuna
Amazon Web Services—global cloud/data-centre leader building sovereign Australian infrastructure requiring security clearances.
Verdict: Strong data-centre infrastructure operations fit with AWS, requiring clearance eligibility (which Josh has). However, this is a Facilities Operations Centre Engineer role focused on operations/monitoring rather than project/program delivery management—a lateral move from his PM career trajectory.
Why it fits Josh
  • AWS data centre operations directly aligns with Tier 2 target employers and his multi-discipline infrastructure coordination (M&E, power, cooling translate from telco)
  • Australian citizen and clearance-eligible as required; his CCEP public-safety work demonstrates ability to navigate sensitive government programs
  • Critical infrastructure 24/7 operations mindset from managing live NSW PSN network handovers and operational acceptance
  • Sydney-based role matches his location and infrastructure portfolio management experience
Watch-outs
  • Role title is 'Engineer' focused on FOC operations/monitoring, not 'Project Manager' or 'Delivery Manager'—may lack the project delivery scope Josh seeks
  • Operations centre work may be more reactive monitoring/incident response than proactive program/project delivery leadership
  • Job description truncated so full scope unclear; if purely operational support rather than delivery, it's a step sideways from his $205k PM role

Tier 3  (2)

7​/​10
Director – Gas Turbine Facility Development I Energy
SmartRecruiters, Inc.  ·  The Rocks, Sydney  ·  💰 $180k-$280k  ·  Full-time permanent, Hybrid, Melbourne-based  ·  via Adzuna
AECOM Energy practice – global consultancy delivering power generation, renewable energy, and energy efficiency infrastructure projects.
Verdict: Strong infrastructure sector fit (energy utilities, Tier 3 target) with a major consultancy, but significant domain stretch from telecom/critical-comms into gas turbine power generation; seniority and project scale align well.
Why it fits Josh
  • AECOM is a Tier 2 target consultancy for data centre work; this energy infrastructure role sits in Josh's Tier 3 sector (energy/utilities alongside Transgrid, Ausgrid)
  • Director-level scope managing facility development aligns with his $90M+ portfolio accountability and multi-discipline coordination experience
  • Infrastructure project lifecycle delivery (development, design, procurement, construction oversight) mirrors his CCEP end-to-end delivery model
  • Multi-stakeholder government/regulatory engagement in energy sector translates from his NSW Govt public-safety work
Watch-outs
  • Gas turbine power generation is a significant technical domain shift from RF/telecom/fibre networks; no power plant or thermal generation experience evident
  • Role likely requires energy sector regulatory knowledge (AEMO, environmental, generation licensing) versus telecom/public-safety frameworks
  • Location primary Melbourne-based (hybrid) versus Sydney; would require relocation discussion or interstate arrangement
7​/​10
Construction Manager, Australia
EDP Renewables  ·  Sydney, Sydney Region  ·  via Adzuna
EDP Renewables is a global renewable energy leader and major wind producer, developing and operating solar/wind/storage projects across Asia Pacific.
Verdict: Strong fit for Josh's infrastructure PM skillset. Renewable energy construction management aligns well with his critical infrastructure delivery experience, though it's a sector pivot from telco/comms into energy/renewables.
Why it fits Josh
  • Direct parallel: managing large-scale infrastructure construction projects - his CCEP $90M+ portfolio delivery, site acquisition, design, construction vendor management all transfer directly to renewable energy construction
  • Multi-discipline coordination experience (civil, structural, electrical, RF) maps well to renewable energy construction requirements (civil works, electrical infrastructure, substation work)
  • Regional/remote site delivery expertise from 120+ CCEP sites across NSW including alpine locations translates to wind/solar farm construction in remote Australian locations
  • EDP Renewables is a major energy infrastructure player (Tier 3 target sector: energy/renewables) - construction management of wind/solar projects is genuine critical infrastructure PM work
Watch-outs
  • Sector pivot required: no direct renewable energy or wind/solar project experience - will need to demonstrate transferability of telco/comms infrastructure skills
  • Title is 'Construction Manager' not 'Project Manager' - may indicate more site-focused execution role rather than full project lifecycle/portfolio management he's used to
  • Job description truncated so unable to assess full scope, seniority level, team size, or budget responsibility

Borderline — worth a look  (1)

Network Planning Leader, ANZ | Energy — AECOM
Energy sector network planning leadership role at a major consultancy aligns with Josh's Tier 3 target (energy/utilities infrastructure), but the emphasis on strategic planning, consulting, and energy-sector expertise (rather than hands-on delivery PM of physical infrastructure) represents a significant pivot from his telco/critical-comms construction delivery background.
