Internal Project Manager / Risk Manager

GE Vernova is hiring an Internal Project Manager & Risk Manager for its North America Grid Solutions Integration Behind the Meter portfolio.

Responsibilities:

• Coordinate cross-functional activities across engineering, manufacturing, sourcing, quality, logistics, and site teams to ensure alignment with approved project execution plans

• Support preparation and facilitation of internal project reviews, readiness reviews, and execution meetings
• Lead and coordinate the risk and opportunity management process across an assigned group of projects, facilitating structured assessment sessions with Senior Project Managers, Project Directors, Project Controllers and cross-functional teams
• Own the accuracy, completeness, and timely updates of Risk & Opportunity Registers, ensuring traceability and alignment with company risk management standards
• Consolidate project-level risk data to deliver a clear sub-portfolio view of exposure, trends, and potential financial and schedule impacts
• Monitor mitigation and opportunity realization actions, ensuring clear ownership and follow-up; escalate emerging or significant risks to project/portfolio leadership
• Prepare and maintain risk dashboards and summaries to support leadership decisions and portfolio reviews
• Support budget tracking, commitments, and actuals in coordination with the Project Controller
• Assist with Estimate at Completion (EAC) reviews, internal financial reporting, and change management documentation — without owning customer negotiations
• Champion the adoption of AI and digital tools in project management, identifying opportunities to automate routine activities, enhance risk analysis, and improve reporting efficiency
• Drive lessons learned, best practices, process adherence, continuous improvement, and standardization initiatives across the portfolio
• Serve as a key internal coordination point between project teams and factories for manufacturing follow-up, Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) readiness, and delivery coordination
• Participate in customer-facing meetings only when delegated, in a supporting capacity

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering or a related field from an accredited university or college
• Minimum 5 years of experience in project management, project controls, or project execution roles, preferably within power, grid, energy or EPC environment
• Experience supporting complex projects involving factory-manufactured equipment and cross-functional teams
• Strong foundation in project management principles: schedule, cost, risk, and opportunity management
• Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills, with a collaborative approach and attention to data integrity
• Strong facilitation skills, with the ability to lead cross-functional discussions, challenge assumptions constructively, and drive alignment
• GE Vernova will only employ those who are legally authorized to work in the United States for this opening
• Experience applying structured risk assessment methodologies and building risk exposure reports across multiple projects
• Proficiency with scheduling and project tools such as Primavera P6, MS Project, ERP systems, or risk management applications
