VP, Data Centre Operations – APAC

Bangkok, Thailand · Relocation offered · Confidential search

Your next chapter starts in Bangkok.

T4X is partnering exclusively with a well-funded international data centre and AI infrastructure business on one of the most significant leadership appointments in Asia.

The business is building a 1.5GW platform across APAC, spanning traditional data centres through to next-generation AI capacity. As it scales, it’s appointing a Vice President of Data Centre Operations to lead the region from Bangkok.

It’s a rare chance to build a regional operating platform from the ground up, with the backing of a business that moves fast and invests for the long term.

What you’ll do

  • Lead data centre operations across a growing, multi-site APAC portfolio, with full accountability for uptime, safety and service delivery.

  • Build the regional operations function from day one: the team, the operating model, the processes and the standards.

  • Recruit and develop high-performing site and regional teams across multiple markets.

  • Work closely with design, construction and commissioning so new capacity moves smoothly into live operations.

  • Lead operations through the shift from traditional colocation to high-density AI infrastructure.

  • Own operational budgets, vendor strategy and continuous improvement across the region.

  • Represent operations with customers and the executive leadership team.

Who we’re looking for

  • A senior operations leader from a data centre operator, colocation or hyperscale background.

  • A proven track record running large, multi-site portfolios at regional or national level.

  • Experience building or scaling an operations function in a high-growth environment.

  • Hands-on, with the technical depth to stay close to the detail and the leadership presence to set direction.

  • A strong grounding in critical infrastructure and mission-critical operating standards.

  • Experience in Asia or with AI environments is a plus, but not essential.

What’s on offer

  • A regional leadership role at the heart of one of Asia’s largest data centre and AI build-outs.

  • A highly competitive executive package.

  • Relocation to Bangkok.

  • The chance to shape how operations runs across APAC, and to put your name on it.

Why Bangkok?

Bangkok is one of Asia’s most vibrant and liveable cities. It offers riverside living, world-class international schools, a great cost of living and some of the region’s best travel connections, with Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo and the islands of Thailand all a short flight away.
