Junior Officer Leadershp
About The Position
GE Vernova is proud to offer engineering and leadership opportunities to former military veterans through our Junior Officer Leadership Program (JOLP). This program is designed to bridge the gap between professional military service and a career in the private sector. Candidates must reside in or be willing to relocate to Schenectady, NY, as this role reports onsite. At GE Vernova, we have the Energy to Change the World. Building on over 130 years of experience, we are leading a new era of energy - electrifying the world while simultaneously working to decarbonize it. The Junior Officer Leadership Program (JOLP) is a unique opportunity for former US military officers to work in three high-impact roles within GE Vernova’s Wind business. Each candidate will complete three 8-month-long rotations and, for the latter two, will have the autonomy to choose the direction of his or her professional passion. We seek humble yet driven leaders that embrace GE’s core values, have a passion for customers, technology and innovation, and a curiosity to continually learn and seek opportunities to improve what is around them. The program enables participants to build business skills and expand their network to ensure they are best positioned to lead in the commercial space. This program is intended for high-performing officers with a strong track record in their military experience. We challenge each JOLP to constantly ask questions, strategically challenge the status quo, and raise up their fellow teammates.
