Quiet Strength, Global Impact: Maya Tanaka’s Journey at Hitachi Energy
Hello, I am Maya Tanaka. I’m honored to introduce myself as a member of the Hitachi Energy Japan team.
Originally from China, I’ve had the opportunity to live, study, and work in several countries. These international experiences have shaped me into someone who values cultural diversity, adaptability, and continuous learning. I would describe myself as a quiet and thoughtful person who enjoys listening, observing, and finding meaningful ways to contribute to the team’s success.
I joined Hitachi Energy in December 2024 as an Operational Buyer, belonging to the SCM team within the Service BU. I am proud to be part of a company that places sustainability, innovation, and global collaboration at the core of its mission. Hitachi Energy Japan is currently undergoing an exciting transformation, and globalization is creating new opportunities for growth. I feel very fortunate to be part of this transition.
What inspires me most in my current role is the ability to contribute to efficient operations that support critical service functions. Procurement plays a key part in maintaining service reliability, which in turn supports our customers and their power substation systems.
I deeply value the culture of collaboration and mutual support within the BU Service team. It’s a workplace where diverse ideas are respected, and teamwork drives success.
By ensuring smooth supply chain processes, I’m proud that my work contributes to the global energy transition and a more sustainable, decarbonized future. I’m excited about what lies ahead as we move forward together as One Hitachi - united by purpose and shared values.
