We are a private commercial real estate owner seeking an experienced data center or colocation professional to lead leasing and business development for a 700,000-square-foot campus in Nashua, New Hampshire.

Previously occupied by Digital Equipment Corporation, the campus includes former laboratory and technical space historically supported by substantial electrical and cooling infrastructure, including Liebert equipment. We are seeking someone who can help evaluate the opportunity, identify suitable users, and secure tenants for portions of the property.

This position offers the opportunity to work directly with ownership and help shape the campus’s next use.

Develop and execute a leasing strategy targeting data center operators, colocation providers, enterprise IT users, managed service providers, and other businesses requiring power-intensive technical space. An early priority will be determining which spaces can be marketed with existing infrastructure and which would require upgrades.
