GE, Unison announce 50 to 75 new jobs coming to Norwich
NORWICH – General Electric (GE) General Manager of Supply Chain for GE Aviation Systems Electronics Mike Chanatry announced an estimated 50 to 75 new jobs which will be coming to the Norwich Unison facility in the coming year.
Chanatry met on Tuesday with United States Congressman Michael Arcuri (NY-24), in addition to Unison management and employees, to personally thank the local facility for its “outstanding performance,” and reported that revenues at the Norwich Unison are up “approximately 20 percent.”
“It’s a great opportunity being able to transfer and add jobs and products,” said Unison Director of Operations in Norwich, Gary Cummings. “We’re very fortunate to receive this kind of backing from the company and we’d like to thank the congressman for his support.”
Arcuri was on hand to discuss his “continued support for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter Competitive Engine Program,” which includes engine components constructed by Unison, “and its impact on growth potential at the local manufacturing facility,” according to an Aug. 24 press release.
While the new positions are not directly related to the fighter plane, which will allegedly replace 95 percent of the Army, Navy and Marine Corps’ fighter jet fleet one day, Unison Product Line Manager Mike Weaver said that “GE leadership is happy with the performance of the Unison Norwich operation and wants to support growth of the site.”
GE’s evaluations of the Norwich Unison facility have shown that its done “very well,” said Weaver, who added “the whole team works together to serve the customer and keep costs down.”
Chanatry concurred and added he’s “very excited about growth opportunities in an area where unemployment rates are at 9 or 10 percent.”
Congressman Arcuri said he believed “good paying, solid jobs” are “critical to Norwich,” and added he’ll “continue to fight to build jobs and the economy here.”
Chanatry recognized Arcuri for his support and said that “thanks to his work” the engine competition has been kept alive.
As Unison’s parent company, GE, in partnership with Rolls Royce, have continued to develop their F136 engine in direct competition with the Pratt-Whitney F135 engine for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter.
