Patrick Hornung has joined CBRE’s Global Workplace Solutions' Data Center Solutions (GWS DCS) division as a data center manager.

Hornung was previously a senior IBX facility technician at Equinix in Frankfurt. He spent four years at the colocation and interconnection giant.

After leaving Equinix in June, he spent one month as a stay-at-home parent, before joining CBRE GWS DCS for a brief two-month stint as a capacity manager. He has now been appointed as a data center manager, still based out of Frankfurt.

"I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Data Center Manager at CBRE GWS DCS!," Hornung said on LinkedIn.

"You also want to work for a company that supports your personal development and practice values such as diversity, occupational safety and work-life balance? DCS can help your priorities succeed with certainty."

CBRE Data Center Solutions works with data center owners, occupiers, and investors across the data center lifecycle.
