We are part of CTS Group.

Browse data centre jobsWhich countries do we operate in?
DC People is CTS Group's specialist recruitment agency for the data center industry, filling roles across Europe, the Middle East and South America. Our network is built specifically around data center construction and operations, placing technicians, infrastructure engineers, operations specialists, AI and cloud infrastructure specialists, and construction professionals on live builds.
What qualifications do I need to work in a data center?
It depends on the role and the country. Technician and engineering roles usually need a recognised electrical or mechanical qualification plus the local health and safety evidence for the country you will be working in. Requirements vary by market, so check the per market information for the country you are targeting.
Read the credential screening guideDo you sponsor visas or work permits?
No, unfortunately we do not sponsor visas or work permits for candidates from outside the EU. If you already hold the right to work in the EU, we can place you on rotational assignments with travel and accommodation fully covered.
Are your roles permanent, contract, or rotational?
We place candidates across all three. Live builds are typically project based or rotational, while operations roles at running sites are more often permanent. When you apply, the role type is listed on the vacancy, and your recruiter will talk you through what the pattern actually looks like day to day.
What does a fully covered rotation include?
On a fully covered rotation, travel to and from site, your accommodation, and food are arranged and paid for as part of the assignment. The exact package varies by project and country, so your recruiter will confirm the details for the specific role before you commit to anything.
Do you charge candidates any fees?
No. You will never be asked to pay for placement, for CV review, or for access to vacancies.
Do I need to speak the local language?
On most international data center projects the working language on site is English. Some permanent operations roles in local markets prefer or require the national language, and where that applies it is stated on the vacancy.
How do I apply for a role through DC People?
All DC People vacancies run through the DC People JobHub, and that is where you apply. Search the roles, apply to the one that fits, and your application goes straight to the specialist recruiter handling it. You can also reach our recruiters directly on LinkedIn or by email, which is worth doing if nothing suits you today, since many data center roles are filled before they are ever advertised.
Browse open rolesWhat happens after I apply?
Your application goes straight to the specialist recruiter handling that role. They review your technical background and project record first. If there is a fit, you will have a call with our sourcing team, then a second conversation with a Talent Acquisition Manager. Your CV is then sent to the CTS hiring manager for the project. If they want to take it forward, you interview with CTS directly, and an offer follows if it goes well. If we cannot place you right now, we keep your details for future roles in your market and discipline.
