Vestas Technology & Operations > Quality > Regional CPX Quality NCE  

Vestas Technology & Operations (VTO) is the integrated CTO and COO organization within Vestas, encompassing the full industrial value chain — from Research & Development, Procurement and Manufacturing to Supply Chain and Quality. VTO’s mission is to transform the way Vestas engineers, sources, contracts, manufactures and delivers its products to consistently meet the highest standards for quality, cost efficiency and time-to-market.

• Review and validate work instructions from a site and operator perspective, ensuring clarity, usability, and compliance with QMS requirements
• Identify quality gaps through maturity assessments and coordinate mitigation actions with R&D, Product, and other relevant stakeholders
• Prepare and issue formal validation reports, including Go/No-Go decisions and defined conditional approval actions
