Job Description Summary
Supply chains don't run themselves — they're built by people who think strategically, act decisively, and bring teams together to solve hard problems. As a Senior Sourcing Manager for Commodity Management at GE Vernova, you will own the sourcing strategy for Non-Globalized commodities within Gas Power Services, drive meaningful improvements across quality, delivery, cost, and cash performance, and lead the Alpha Supply Chain Services (SCS) Request for Quotation (RFQ) Management Team. This is a leadership role at the intersection of operational excellence and strategic supplier development — one where your decisions directly shape GE Vernova's ability to deliver for its customers.
Job Description
Lead the Alpha SCS RFQ Management Team— define and execute operational strategies that improve turnaround time (TAT) and quote upload performance, driving stronger business engagement and margin outcomes across both inquiry-to-order (ITO) and order-to-remittance (OTR) phases.
Own sourcing strategy for assigned commodities— develop and implement plans that deliver measurable cost reduction and cash improvement, including lead time reduction, on-time delivery, payment term improvement, supplier rationalization, and low-cost country (LCC) volume growth.
Drive supplier performance and compliance— manage key performance indicators (KPIs) across supply, quality, delivery, and cost; lead supplier conferences, vendor negotiations, should-cost analysis, and total landed cost management to generate year-over-year savings.
Ensure governance and policy adherence— own sourcing Quality Management System (QMS) compliance, including delegation of authority (DOA), price approvals, segregation of duties, competitive bidding, and supplier onboarding standards.
Lead, coach, and develop team— build capability across commodity management, fulfilment management, and Alpha SCS teams; execute daily management routines and lean continuous improvement events to raise performance across the sourcing value chain.
Partner cross-functionally— collaborate with Order Management (OM), Materials, Legal, and Flow Parts Fulfilment teams to exceed targets on on-time delivery (OTD), delinquency reduction, supplier escapes, and contract management.
Who You Are
You are an experienced sourcing leader who combines strategic thinking with hands-on execution — someone who is equally comfortable setting commodity strategy and rolling up your sleeves to resolve a supplier escalation or coach a team member through a complex negotiation.
