Help make complex customer projects work better!
At INNIO, our Customer Project Management teams deliver complex energy solutions worldwide — from engine deliveries and containerized solutions to overhaul & repair activities and full-scope power plant projects

Translating business needs into practical tool, process, or reporting solutions that work for our organization
Depending on your strengths and development, you will gradually take on broader ownership of selected topics including:
Ceating and improving reports, dashboards, and management-ready insights with clarity and structure
Cooperation with Project Finance and Cost Control as well as with Digital / IT teams
User support and improvements related to our ERP system and digital tools
Implement agile elements in how customer projects are executed
Preparing training material, onboarding content, and user guidance for our international teams

Experience in an industrial, engineering, manufacturing, service, supply chain, or project delivery environment
Exposure to customer project management or related interfaces such as logistics, purchasing, finance, or controlling
