The Executive Program Manager – Turbine Sourcing and Modernization Initiatives is responsible for leading end-to-end programs focused on the strategic sourcing, upgrade, and lifecycle extension of turbine assets across the organization. This role drives modernization roadmaps, vendor alignment, procurement strategies, and project delivery for critical gas and steam turbine infrastructure—ensuring improved reliability, efficiency, and alignment with future energy goals.
Lead large-scale programs targeting turbine replacement, upgrade, and repowering across operational assets or capital expansion.
Oversee program governance, reporting, risk management, and cross-functional alignment across all phases—scoping, sourcing, execution, and commissioning.
Develop and execute sourcing strategies for turbine systems (gas, steam) and auxiliary components in coordination with procurement and technical teams.
Manage RFPs, technical bid evaluations, and contract negotiations with OEMs and technology partners (GE, Siemens, Mitsubishi, etc.).
Define modernization objectives (efficiency, emissions reduction, lifecycle extension) and translate them into actionable technical and commercial programs.
Coordinate with engineering and operations teams to align turbine upgrades with maintenance schedules and operational demands.
Serve as the executive interface between engineering, supply chain, finance, project execution, and site operations.
Facilitate change management, CAPEX planning, and executive reporting to ensure transparency and alignment with strategic business goals.
Ensure integration of technical requirements (capacity, footprint, emissions, controls) into procurement and installation plans.
Track performance metrics post-implementation to measure return on investment and operational improvement.
Oversee OEM and EPC performance, enforce contractual milestones, and mitigate schedule, cost, or technical risks.
Establish vendor scorecards, quality surveillance, and warranty enforcement plans.
Strategic sourcing and modernization of turbine systems across utility, oil & gas, or industrial fleets
Program integration of technical, commercial, and schedule priorities
Coordination of complex multi-site or multi-country upgrade initiatives
Long-term reliability, cost savings, and energy performance optimization
Education: Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or related field (MBA or PMP preferred)
