Service > Global Service Operations, Quality & HSE > Global Offshore Operations
The Global Offshore Service Operations department has a threefold purpose:
We capture learnings and identify operational gaps in our existing fleet, maintaining and increasing the performance in the OFS platforms we operate today
We prepare the organisation for the significant growth ahead, ensuring that we can safely and profitably ramp up operations across the globe
We develop and implement new operational concepts and ways of working to increase efficiencies within our operations and make Vestas more competitive
Vestas Service is today servicing ~8.5 GW offshore, mainly within our Northern European (NCE) region. Towards 0, we expect the capacity to triple, with a significant portion of the growth coming from outside Europe. To be effective, the department has an operational end-to-end responsibility, ensuring that current fleet performance is enhanced while ensuring that existing learnings are being captured and implemented in our ways of working tomorrow. This will empower Vestas to effectively implement its strategy as a foremost provider of Offshore Wind in the upcoming years.
The department interacts with key stakeholders within and outside of the EVP Service area, such as Technology, Sales, Manufacturing, Construction, and the Regions, to ensure that suitable activities are being implemented and accelerated. As such, working with stakeholders across all levels of the organisation in a matrix set-up is critical for growth.

Understanding current operational pain points and opportunities to add value to our customers and our business

Problem-solve, provide recommendations and implement initiatives and projects related to the mid-to-long-term development of Vestas Service's offshore business plan

Identifying and managing projects that improve the ways we work offshore and that will allow us to share resources across the business more efficiently

Working closely and collaboratively with stakeholders across the value chain to implement identified projects (e.g., Technology, Service MPD, Lean, Supply Chain & Repair, etc.)

Working closely with the regional operations and costing teams to ensure that all relevant improvements are being implemented in our operations today as well as in any future bids and projects

Structured problem solver with the ability to set the agenda and keep the overview in a complex and busy organization

Cultural affinity and a significant portion of interpersonal skills

As this role is in a new part of the business, the ability to freely coordinate progress across different global and regional stakeholders is a prerequisite
