Data Center Construction

-

The Southeast is in the middle of the largest data center construction wave in its history — and contractors are importing skilled labor from outside the region to keep pace with aggressive timelines. The broader construction industry faces a projected shortage of roughly 499,000 workers in 2026, and data center projects compete for that same labor pool at premium rates. A single hyperscale campus can draw more than 1,000 skilled trades at peak construction. Openings below include electricians, pipefitters, millwrights, HVAC installers, superintendents, project managers, and safety personnel on active data center projects across the Southeast.
