Job Description Summary
The energy transition demands experienced project leaders who can navigate complexity, manage commercial risk, and build lasting customer relationships. As a Marine Project Manager within GE Vernova's Power Conversion business, you will take ownership of high-stakes programmes in the marine and naval sector — ensuring projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the satisfaction of some of the most demanding customers in the industry.
This is a customer-facing role at the heart of a multi-disciplinary delivery team. You will be the primary point of contact for clients, the driver of project performance, and the person who brings clarity when challenges arise.
Job Description
Key Responsibilities
- Serve as the primary customer contact across your marine programmes, building trusted relationships that support satisfaction, retention, and future business.
- Lead and coordinate multi-disciplinary project teams — aligning internal functions and external suppliers to deliver against contractual commitments on time and within budget.
- Manage the commercial, technical, and quality dimensions of your projects, including timely customer billing and cash collection.
- Create, maintain, and drive progress against project plans — identifying deviations early, managing risk, and forecasting performance with confidence.
- Register, compile, submit, and negotiate extensions of time, variations, and contractual claims as they arise.
- Ensure full compliance with GE Vernova processes and procedures throughout the project lifecycle.
- Conduct structured project reviews to monitor cost, track progress, and manage issues before they escalate.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
