Our Project Controls Graduate Programme

One Project Controls is our early careers programme designed to create a pipeline of diverse Project Controls professionals. The program is 3 years, with most early careers completing three 12-month rotations, designed to provide breadth of experience and build technical depth.

Role and Responsibilities

BPs Projects Organisation spends around $7 billion of CAPEX per year across a portfolio of 40 - 50 large-scale engineering and construction projects. Being able to predictably execute and continuously improve performance is fundamental to having a sustainable, reliable, outstanding projects organisation.

  • Analysing and forecasting project data and information that drive performance.

  • Building relationships both within BP and with our external partners, collaborating across functions, segments and teams to deliver meaningful work

As part of BP, you will also be able to take part in additional activities outside of your role, whether it be supporting local community initiatives, our BP Business Resourcing Groups and you are given the encouragement and time to participate.
