We are in a constantly evolving world with the rise of AI, geopolitical tensions and changes in energy demand. bp is evolving to a downstream and upstream model to best serve the changing world and within bp, Technology is at the heart of this evolution.
This role provides the opportunity to work alongside Technology leadership to deliver key initiatives that will fundamentally change the way that Technology works at bp supporting the business shift to a Upstream/Downstream model.
There will be the opportunity to work on broad initiatives with high levels of ambiguity. The role will evolve as priorities within the change agenda shift, but the role will maintain a high leadership focus to improve as a Technology organisation.
You will work with:
The Transformation, Analytics and Insights (TAI) team reports directly to the EVP Technology and is distributed globally across US, UK, India and Malaysia. Our team Credo brings us together to ensure that we work as one team together regardless of location. We work to ensure that Technology is an efficient, effective and trusted partner for the bp business. Our activities span from creating tooling to support improved delivery efficiency to supporting transformation activity and mergers & acquisitions. An important part of this work is the change and engagement aspect that touches everything we do in TTAI and across Technology, focusing on how we bring our workforce along on the journey and enabling them through the right processes, tools and ways of working. We are tightly coupled across the team to Technology leadership and highly visible within the Technology organization.
Workforce, Change & Engagement within the TAI team is a team of trusted advisors working alongside TAI, SVPs and VPs to shape and communicate transformation activities, with a focus on workforce and bringing our people along on the journey. We act as a consultancy, providing short engagements with longer-term governance to ensure that initiatives are embedded and standards in communication, change and engagement are in place. We problem solve for our SVPs and VPs, leveraging deep relationships across the TAI team and Technology. The pace is fast and changable; we care deeply about each other, are kind even when it is tough to speak the truth and have each others back.
Because the TTAI team supports many different workstreams we are often required to flex and accommodate changing demands from the organization. Whilst individuals will be assigned to a specific team, we anticipate that there will be occasional need to support other TTAI workstreams.
