  • Coordinate with multiple GE manufacturing locations to manage production follow-up, FAT planning, NCR resolution, and delivery priorities
  • Ensure early escalation to portfolio leadership when factory constraints or supply-chain risks impact customer schedules
  • Ensure strict adherence to EHS and Quality standards across all project activities, including FATs and site interfaces
  • Identify project risks, develop mitigation plans, establish contingency strategies, and track trigger events throughout execution
  • Drive NCR resolution, corrective/preventive actions, and lessons learned across the portfolio
  • Build and maintain strategic customer relationships with utilities, EPCs, developers, and other project stakeholders
  • Provide transparent reporting, early escalation, and consistent communication to maintain alignment and trust
  • Lead customer meetings, milestone reviews, FATs, and project review sessions
  • Support tendering activities by validating schedules, costs, manufacturing lead times, and execution risks
  • Contribute to the deployment of standardized project management processes, PMO tools, templates, and execution playbooks across the project portfolio

Requirements

  • Minimum 5+ years of experience executing HV substation or high-voltage grid projects
