Job Description:

As bp transitions to an integrated energy company, we must adapt to a changing world and maintain competitive performance. bp’s customers & products (C&P) business area is setting up a business and technology centre (BTC) in Pune, India. This will support the delivery of an enhanced customer experience and drive innovation by building global capabilities at scale, demonstrating technology, and developing deep expertise. The BTC will be a core and connected part of our business, bringing together colleagues who report into their respective part of C&P, working together with other functions across bp. This is an exciting time to join bp and the customers & products BTC!

The Customers and Products (C&P) entity actively pursues many opportunities to achieve positive sustainability impact for its customers and its many businesses (called 'sub-entities'). C&P's activities range from providing low carbon mobility solutions to customers at retail forecourts and airports to growing the circularity attributes in the products that we sell for example in our Castrol sub-entity.C&P has its own central Carbon Management and Sustainability (CM&S) team, and the Sustainability Program Manager role is part of that team. The Sustainability Program Manager role will coordinate the delivery of C&P's sustainability plan. This involves engaging directly with tags in each sub-entity to supervise progress and advise how to improve impact and delivery. It also involves engagement with bp's central sustainability team ('SS&V') to report on C&P's progress and seeking their support where needed. The role will also lead the work on sustainability impact assessments needed for all new investment cases going through C&P's investment governance process. This often requires working with other sustainability subject matter experts in bp for example in SS&V. The role is also responsible for coordinating C&P's input to bp's annual sustainability report published externally. In particular, the Sustainability Program Manager collects the proof points and related evidence to showcase C&P's sustainability impact and delivery in action.

We are on a journey to transform our business to become the highest performing & customer centric aviation fuel company of choice. The key to unlocking this is the key role we play in bp's net zero ambition; with a key focus on rapid balanced aviation fuel growth, as well as the electrification of our fleet.
