Job description

Responsibilities
Related Digital is seeking a Construction Cost & Forecast Manager to own budget tracking, cost forecasting, trend management, GMP reconciliation, and cost reporting across assigned data center projects. This is a project-level role that serves as the primary interface with Turner & Townsend and other cost consultants, working closely with Development, Design, Procurement, and Construction teams to maintain cost visibility, support decision-making, and ensure approved budgets are successfully transitioned into field cost controls and change management processes. The right candidate will bring strong commercial construction experience, preferably from a general contractor background, and a command of cost controls methodology. This role is based in Dallas, Texas, with travel to project sites required. Candidates based at an active project site will also be considered.
We'll Trust You To
  • Manage project budgets from initial planning through GMP development and transition into field execution, maintaining accuracy and alignment with approved cost plans at every stage.
  • Lead GMP development and tracking, reconciling contractor proposals against approved budgets and identifying variances, risks, and required escalations.
  • Maintain ongoing cost trend analysis across all project scopes, flagging emerging issues and providing leadership with timely, accurate forecasts of cost at completion.
  • Produce project KPI cost reports and construction spend forecasts for internal stakeholders, ensuring visibility into budget performance and financial risk across the project lifecycle.
  • Develop and manage GC cost reporting mechanics and templates, establishing consistent methodologies for cost tracking across general contractors and the broader project team.
  • Serve as the primary day-to-day interface with Turner & Townsend and other cost consultants, coordinating inputs, reviewing deliverables, and ensuring alignment with project cost controls objectives.
  • Manage the budget handoff process to field teams, ensuring all cost controls, change management frameworks, and reporting structures are fully established prior to construction mobilization.
  • Oversee change management integration, tracking all scope changes, potential change orders, and cost impacts through the appropriate approval and documentation workflows.
  • Partner with Development, Design, and Procurement teams to evaluate cost implications of design decisions, procurement strategies, and schedule changes throughout the project lifecycle.

Qualifications
  • Approximately 4 to 5 years of experience in construction cost management spanning both preconstruction and field execution phases on large-scale capital projects, ideally from a general contractor background. Mission-critical or large-scale infrastructure experience preferred; data center experience a plus.
  • Strong working knowledge of GMP development, budget tracking, cost forecasting, and change management processes in a general contractor or owner's representative context.
  • Experience working with or managing third-party cost consultants such as Turner & Townsend, Linesight, or similar firms.
  • Proficiency in cost management and reporting tools; comfort developing and maintaining structured cost templates and reporting frameworks across multiple project stakeholders.
  • Effective communicator with the ability to translate complex cost data into clear, actionable reporting for project leadership and executive stakeholders.
  • Highly organized, with the ability to manage cost controls across multiple concurrent projects in a fast-paced development environment.
  • Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Quantity Surveying, or a related field preferred.
