Irrespective of the track, you will follow a structured development offer to accelerate the acquisition of foundational technical skills, experience and knowledge, and application in the business world.
The programme supports transition from university to discipline professional and provides a framework of ‘non-technical’ skills to support building personal effectiveness skills.
The three-year programme which comprises three 12-month rotations is designed to give you breadth of experience and the opportunity to build technical depth. You will be challenged in many ways – all of which will build your confidence, expertise, and experience at pace, giving you the flexibility to eventually take your career in the direction that suits you best.
Along with being part of the bp early careers community, you will have a dedicated support network to provide guidance on the programme, advice on career development and answer your questions, helping you to navigate the organization.

Commercial development track: Every year, bp invests billions of dollars searching for new sources of energy, supplying our customers with the fuels they need. You’ll help to ensure we make the best use of our investment.
We want you to be in the best position to propose new and creative ways to maximize value. The commercial development track will help you to develop strong commercial acumen which is supported by the different rotations you will undertake. You may find yourself placed in a team that sets strategy, tracks the market, or manages foreign exchange, or you may be a trading operator responsible for the logistical success of a trading deal. Other rotations include marketing & origination, structured products and chartering.
No matter where you work, all the roles will offer a challenging experience that gives you first-hand exposure to our supply, trading & shipping activities and will contribute to building your long-term career in the organisation.
