You will use data-driven insights from community assessments to develop and execute strategic engagement programs for existing and prospective data center markets. You will partner with cross-functional teams to drive measurable social impact, build relationships with government officials and community leaders, and manage a portfolio of non-profit partnerships. In this role, you will also serve as a subject matter expert on community development, helping to integrate best practices across a rapidly growing organization.
