About The Position

Supply chains don't manage themselves — and at GE Vernova, the stakes couldn't be higher. We're electrifying the world's energy transition, and the materials that make that possible have to move smarter, faster, and more sustainably than ever before. As a Strategic Sourcing Leader, you'll own a $500M+ spend portfolio spanning configured systems and major/minor metals commodities, cost reduction, supply resilience, and long-term value creation. You'll work across engineering, finance, legal, and commercial teams — and directly with global suppliers — to shape how GE Vernova sources the critical inputs that power its products. This is a senior individual contributor where your strategic thinking, commercial instincts, and ability to drive change across a matrixed organization will define the outcome.

Responsibilities

Lead commodity strategy across $500M+ in spend: develop and execute global sourcing strategies for configured systems and metals commodities, with a focus on cost productivity, cash flow, quality, and supply continuity — balancing short-term commitments with a long-term sustainability blueprint.

Drive cost reduction and commercial outcomes through contract negotiations, process changes, best cost country (BCC) sourcing, supply base rationalization, and sustainable cost controls — partnering with Finance to validate P&L impact.
Manage the full supplier lifecycle: lead global supplier selection, qualification, development, and performance management, including end-to-end contract lifecycle management and risk mitigation in partnership with Commercial, Legal, and Engineering teams.
Partner cross-functionally with Engineering, Product Management, Environmental Health & Safety (EHS), Quality, Material Management, and Finance to promote long-term, sustainable solutions and drive product cost-out opportunities.
