Mechanical Commissioning Lead – Data Centre Project

Location:

Sweden

If you’re the kind of engineer who wants to take real ownership of commissioning — not just tick

boxes — this should get your attention.

We’re delivering a major data centre project in Sweden. It’s fast‑paced, highly

technical and full of the sort of moving parts where strong commissioning leadership makes or breaks the job. That’s why we’re

looking for a Mechanical Commissioning Lead who knows how to bring systems online properly, manage multiple specialists, and keep

both the quality and the momentum exactly where they need to be.

What You’ll Do

You’ll be the person

who makes sure the commissioning doesn’t just happen — it happens in the right sequence, with the right documentation, and to the

standard the client expects.

That includes:

• Reviewing IFC drawings, specs and technical submittals
• Working closely with the PM and QS on any commissioning‑related cost impacts
• Mentoring junior engineers and

supporting their development

• Developing and implementing the commissioning plan
• Coordinating commissioning with

planners, package engineers and vendors

• Attending client commissioning meetings and ensuring alignment
• Getting

all descriptions of operations and setpoints approved

• Ensuring checklists, scripts, and documentation meet client

standards

• Managing specialist vendors and ensuring their activities align with programme
• Verifying and

witnessing commissioning activities

• Running and updating commissioning trackers, logs and weekly progress reports
• Leading walkdowns, tag walks and system sign‑off
• Managing snag lists and ensuring issues are closed out quickly
• Ensuring client training is completed on schedule

Quality & Risk

You’ll help define

system boundaries, manage benchmarks, oversee test packs, and ensure everything is accurate, compliant and ready for inspection.

You’ll also take a proactive role in identifying risks, reporting them clearly, and helping the project team stay ahead of

possible delays.

Communication & Commercial Awareness

You’ll issue weekly commissioning and risk

reports, advise on potential variations, and work closely with QS and PM teams to avoid surprises. Clear communication is

essential — especially when something might impact programme.

Who This Suits

If you like being the

person who brings systems to life, who spots issues early, and who knows how to manage commissioning in a structured but practical

way — you’ll thrive here. Data centre experience is an advantage, but strong commissioning leadership and mechanical expertise

matter most.

You’ll enjoy this role if you prefer action over bureaucracy, responsibility over hand‑holding, and clarity

over chaos.

Special consideration will be given to candidates belonging to protected categories.
