This is your chance to work at a rapidly growing business with real challenges, real rewards and a very real opportunity to progress your international career.

Key Accountabilities During the (IGDP) you are expected to develop and build on a range of skills and behaviours through exposure to the business in a variety of placements within Engineering and Operations, which will enable you to take on a position at the end of the two year programme. IGDP placements may include; Developments: To assess the technical feasibility of a new development. Projects: To provide technical support to get new plants designed, built and commissioned. Operations: To ensure existing Assets operate safely and efficiently. As part of your development there is a strong emphasis on self-study and gaining Chartered Engineer status. So as well as real-world, on the job experience you will benefit from a wealth of technical training. This balance of on-the-job learning and formal skills development mirrors and complements the expectations of Engineering Institutions such as the IMechE, IChemE, IET, ICE and InstMC.  Every individual has a duty to both themselves and those around them to ensure that safe practice is adhered to at all times. In addition to any specific accountability for health, safety, security and the environment, all employees are accountable for ensuring that they take care of themselves and adopt exemplary safe behaviours.
