**Job Description Summary**: Become part of a winning team and help to deliver the Green Energy transition.

GE Vernova’s Power Transmission Service business is responsible for after-sales support of our installed base of power transmission equipment, from erection and commissioning, through spare parts, maintenance, and repair, to major overhaul and infrastructure extension projects.

We are now looking for an experienced Sourcing Manager to join our team and take responsibility for managing our supply chain for contractors and spare parts.

Experience of the power transmission industry would be an advantage, but enthusiasm, drive, and a proven track record in a corporate sourcing environment are paramount.

If you have the right personality, we can teach you the rest

Key roles and responsibilities include:

- Manage the buying process for spare parts, materials, and sub-contractors across North Europe region (UK and Ireland, Nordic and Benelux countries)
- Interface with Engineering team to identify technical specifications.
- Interface with Commercial, Tendering and Project Management teams to identify volume requirements.
- Maintain SAP systems to ensure accurate costing data is available to the business. Maintain ERP system.
- Identify and onboard new suppliers. Interface with colleagues in other territories with respect to overseas suppliers.
- Ensure compliance with GE Vernova Delegation of Authority (DoA) protocols and segregation of duties with respect to Procurement.
- Input into Tendering process to ensure material cost optimisation. Input into Project Management delivery to coordinate negotiations and interface with Commodity Managers and Procurement.
- Manage supplier claims.

**Required Qualifications**
- Proficiency in French or other European language would be a significant advantage.
- Experience of international trade including import/export would also be an advantage.
- A bachelor’s degree in engineering is desirable but not necessary.
- Vital to the role is a proven track record of building long-term supplier relationships and trust, and in identifying, qualifying, and on-boarding new suppliers.

**Desired Characteristics**
- The role will involve travel within the UK and North Europe, and we are therefore looking for an individual who is able to work unsupervised, and to manage and prioritise their own workload.
- Excellent oral and written communication skills are therefore necessary to develop an understanding of the business’s needs, to clearly communicate GE’s requirements to suppliers, and to ensure internal stakeholders are kept up to date with supplier delivery times, costs etc.
