Executive Assistant to the COO

at  Serverfarm

Serverfarm is a leading developer and operator of data centers in North America, Western Europe, and Israel, and has key customer relationships with rapidly growing hyperscale, technology and network customers. In September 2023, Manulife Investment Management acquired a controlling interest in Serverfarm, which will allow the company greater access to capital to accelerate the expansion of its data center portfolio on a worldwide basis. The company is positioned to capture the growing demand for data center capacity that continues to grow globally, fueled by the rapid adoption of artificial intelligence and companies’ continued transition of data workloads and storage to the cloud.
Serverfarm has integrated innovation, sustainability and digital transformation into its mission and culture. Serverfarm developed in 2009 out of a need in the market to help customers become more efficient as capacity demands and data management challenges grew. The Serverfarm team began purchasing data centers from customers and leasing back the portion they needed. This strategy transitioned the company from a data center real estate owner into a data center developer and operator, resulting in a growing international portfolio of state-of-the- art facilities.
In 2015, Serverfarm developed its award-winning service platform InCommand with the goal of bringing together the three main elements of a data center: real estate, electrical and mechanical infrastructure, and the IT environment. This portal-based solution combines people, process, and platform, creating a cloud-like experience for data centers. Serverfarm delivers its sustainable Data Center Managemen t as a Service (DMaas) approach at more than 750 locations across forty-five countries.
