Your role at a glance
NTT Global Data Centers is seeking a senior, commercially driven leader to originate, structure, and secure natural gas supply across the United States, enabling power generation for new data center developments and behind-the-meter (BTM) solutions.
The role will also serve as a global subject matter expert, supporting EMEA and APAC teams with strategy, deal structuring, and market insight.
This position is critical to overcoming power constraints and ensuring speed-to-market in competitive, supply-constrained regions.
What we are looking for
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
1. U.S. Gas Supply Origination & Execution
- Lead identification and procurement of firm, scalable natural gas supply for U.S. data center developments.
- Evaluate and secure access to pipeline capacity, storage, and LNG alternatives where applicable.
- Develop region-specific sourcing strategies (ERCOT, PJM, MISO, Southeast, etc.) aligned with site expansion.
2. Commercial Structuring & Negotiation
- Lead negotiation of Gas Supply Agreements (GSAs), transportation agreements, and capacity releases.
- Structure commercial frameworks across spot, mid-term, and long-term supply, balancing flexibility vs. price certainty.
- Partner with finance and legal to manage pricing structures (index vs. fixed), credit terms, and risk allocation.
3. Site Development & Behind-the-Meter Enablement
- Support land and power teams by assessing gas availability, interconnection feasibility, and infrastructure lead times during site selection.
- Enable behind-the-meter generation strategies, including gas-fired plants, microgrids, and hybrid energy systems.
- Identify early-stage constraints (pipeline congestion, permitting, lateral build requirements) and propose solutions.
4. Infrastructure Development & Strategic Partnerships
- Build and manage relationships with producers, pipelines, utilities, LNG providers, and midstream developers.
- Originate opportunities for new pipeline laterals, compression, storage, and on-site LNG regasification.
- Evaluate co-investment or partnership structures to unlock constrained supply.
5. Global Advisory
- Serve as internal SME for natural gas markets, contracting, and infrastructure strategy.
- Support regional teams on deal structuring, supplier engagement, and risk evaluation.
- Provide insights into global gas dynamics and implications for local strategy.
6. Market Intelligence & Risk Management
- Maintain real-time understanding of U.S. and global gas markets, regulatory environments, and geopolitical risks.
- Advise leadership on portfolio exposure, hedging strategies, and long-term fuel positioning.
- Track policy trends impacting gas usage, emissions, and future fuel alternatives (RNG, hydrogen blending).
