Siemens Gamesa

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.

What You Bring

We’re looking for a commercially driven and strategically minded professional with strong stakeholder skills and a genuine interest in shaping new markets.

You’ll likely bring most of the following:

• Proven experience in subcontractor management, supply-chain development, or business development
• Understanding of offshore construction or energy projects (wind, oil & gas, heavy industry, or infrastructure)
• Strong analytical skills and ability to translate market insights into actionable strategies
• Confidence to lead negotiations, build trust, and engage with partners at all levels
• Fluency in English; Japanese proficiency is a major advantage
• Degree in engineering, business, or similar field
• Structured, self-driven, and able to work across time zones and cultures
• Willingness to travel regionally and internationally (~30 days/year)

Above all, you bring entrepreneurial energy, adaptability, and a commitment to renewable growth in Asia.

You’ll join a global Work Package Sourcing (WPS) team with Subcontractor Managers based in Denmark, the UK, Poland, Taiwan, and the US.
