A Snapshot of Your Day
Join us as a Gas Turbine Supervisor, home-based in the UK, in a permanent, full-time role. You lead planned preventative maintenance on large gas turbines and combined‑cycle power plants at customer sites in the UK and overseas—sometimes hands-on, sometimes guiding small, mixed teams of service engineers, NAECI artisans, client staff, and subcontractors. You partner with Site Management and Site Leads to execute work safely and on schedule, prioritising tasks, managing emergent work, and keeping documentation precise and approved. You represent Siemens Energy in customer meetings and provide practical technical advice on turbine/generator disassembly and reassembly. You drive quality and continuous improvement while supporting initiatives like Zero Harm, Talk to Me, and Right First Time—growing through varied projects and role‑relevant training.
