Equinor’s purpose is to turn natural resources into energy for people and progress for society. Within our corporate strategy – Always Safe, High Value and Low Carbon – we are building a broad energy company with activity spanning oil and gas, renewable energy and low carbon solutions.
One of four core business areas in the company, the Marketing Midstream and Processing (MMP) organization is responsible for providing flow assurance to Equinor’s equity production, maximizing the value creation from this equity and Equinor’s mid and downstream assets and using this asset base to create significant value through commodity trading. Based on a strong track record Equinor has a strategically anchored and ambitious growth plan for its commodity trading business, building out both physical and financial trading.
Trading is organized into two units Crude Products and Liquids (“CPL”) and Gas and Power (G&P). CPL is responsible for crude, condensates and all liquid products across the barrel from LPG to Residue. Within the CPL organization we are currently looking to make selective hires into several key roles to deliver on our growth plans, including that of Traders and Trade desk analysts, supporting the global crude, products and gas liquids trading teams.

The same trading desks also have material derivatives trading activity.
The successful candidate will join a Stavanger trading desk, where the role will work with the rest of the trading desk in Stavanger, but will also work closely with traders in the other locations. The role will predominantly be linked to physical and or derivative trading.
