Job Description:
Who we are
Applied sciences is the home for bp’s scientists. We are leading scientists and engineers who work in an inclusive and creative environment to innovate across boundaries. We work to drive value up and carbon down in support of bp’s net zero and growth ambition.
What we do
Applied sciences is where bp’s physical research and development work happens; we cover the science behind everything bp does. We lead scientific innovation right through the lifecycle - from research, product development, demonstration, technical scale-up, commercialization and support for users in the real world.
Our focus is on developing proprietary technologies, which is already a key differentiator for bp and will be even more important as we move into new areas through the journey to net zero.
We also lead scientific collaboration outside bp through our strategic university partnerships and commercial partners - these play a meaningful role in helping us innovate for a net zero world and source the best available solutions to accelerate our work.
Roles and Responsibilities
The programme will operate with a flexible model that allows graduates to experience the breadth of applied sciences activities, with placements within country over a period of three years designed to cover a range of technical areas. Examples of these include:
