The role will require communication of these views externally to customers and counterparties, as well as internally to originators, structurers, traders, and other strategists. Additionally, the role will influence strategy at the group level to help meet bp’s broader ambitions. The role requires an understanding of the linkages between the Australian Power and Carbon, Hydrogen, and other green markets as they develop over time, focusing on identifying and executing opportunities for Trading & Shipping and the broader BP group.
