About

GE Energy Connections, part of the GE conglomerate, creates industry-leading technologies to improve the transmission, distribution and conversion of electricity through its grids and systems, which provide electrical power to a diversified customer base. Based in Santiago, Vjera Razmilić is senior legal counsel for the entire South Cone region for GE Energy Connections; covering company operations in Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay, Argentina and Peru. In Chile, she in fact supports all GE businesses. Razmilić is ‘responsible for the day-to-day activity, structuring and drafting commercial contracts of the company’s key strategic and corporate account customers, including both private and public sectors’. She also maintains the company’s commercial policies and procedures, and ensures its consistent application throughout the business. Geared for success, Razmilić has held other high profile positions within the GE conglomerate. Immediately prior to her current role she was legal counsel South Cone region for Current Powered by GE, in a four mouth spell where she covered Chile, Argentina, Peru and Colombia’s operation of GE Current and Lighting Businesses. Between 2012 and 2016 she covered the same jurisdictions as legal counsel for GE Lighting, her first role at the conglomerate and where she first demonstrated the skills which led to her subsequent promotions. It was during this period, June 2015, that she was admitted to GE’s LATAM Labour & Employment Center of Excellence, a position she has maintained ever since. Describing her enjoyment of in-house life Razmilić says, ‘you can grow as much as you want in an in-house role’ and ‘in-house jobs allow you to work with multi-disciplinary teams’. Before her time at GE, Razmilić worked at E-CL (now Engie Energía Chile) and was in charge of supporting the group’s different Chilean entities by negotiating power purchasing agreements, helping in finance projects, corporate and labour matters. She obtained a Master’s degree in international business law from ESADE Business & Law School in Barcelona in 2009.
