【Job Responsibilities】

■A Snapshot of Your Day
In Work Package Sourcing (WPS), you’ll spearhead Siemens Gamesa’s subcontractor market entry into Japan.
Your day will balance strategy and execution: identifying, qualifying, and developing local subcontractors to ensure Siemens Gamesa is ready to execute upcoming offshore wind projects in Japan.
You’ll map the local supply landscape, engage with potential partners, and coordinate the commercial and technical onboarding of new subcontractors.
This is a role for someone who thrives on building something from the ground up — part business developer, part subcontractor strategist, and part execution enabler.

■How You’ll Make an Impact
You will be the driving force behind Siemens Gamesa’s readiness to deliver future offshore projects in Japan.

■Key focus areas:

• Market development: Map, screen, and engage local installation and service contractors across mechanical, electrical, and civil scopes.
• Business development: Build relationships with local companies, authorities, and industry bodies to establish SGRE’s subcontractor ecosystem.
• Qualification and readiness: Lead technical and HSE qualification of local partners, ensuring compliance with SGRE global standards.
• Strategic sourcing: Define sourcing models and frameworks suited for Japan’s regulatory, logistical, and cultural environment.
• Interface management: Act as the bridge between global WPS teams, Procurement, Project Management, QHSE, and regional stakeholders.
• Execution support: Prepare the market for upcoming projects by ensuring contracts, resources, and partners are ready when the first project mobilizes.

This is a pivotal market-entry role — your work will determine how Siemens Gamesa executes in Japan for years to come.

• Regional and global exposure with strong development potential
