By leveraging diverse, cross-functional teams, we drive innovation, sustainability and technological improvements across the business. As we enter the energy transition, our people will stay at the heart of what we do to drive change as we continue to shape and grow the business.
We constantly seek new talent. As a new member of the Odfjell family, you will be encouraged to use your initiative, experience and talent to help deliver the company vision. No matter your location, we expect our employees to represent our core values by being creative, competent, result-oriented and committed, while always being safety conscious.
To help support competency, we invest in leadership programs and provide trainees with real on-the-job experience. Our employees report high-levels of empowerment, open dialogue and trust.
The energy transition of the coming decades will require a more diverse workforce than ever before. While there are many technical and engineering positions, you don’t need to be an engineer to work with us. We offer challenging and fulfilling positions in HR, IT, finance, business improvement and supply chain management.
