OPERATIONS & FINANCE LEADERSHIP PROGRAM
The core objective of the Rotational Program is to identify and develop the next generation of leaders across Operations, Finance, or potentially within CCI’s commercial businesses. Throughout the program, Associates will have regular interaction with the leaders of our Merchant Operations and Finance groups as well as our commercial businesses to gain perspective on our industry. The European program is based in our London office, and US Program is based in both our Houston, TX and Stamford, CT offices.
This is a two-year rotational program where you will gain exposure to a variety of support functions including: physical operations, settlements, trading operations, FP&A, corporate accounting, credit, tax, treasury, and product control as well as work on special projects around strategic initiatives and strategy for the organization.
Associates will participate in four different six-month rotations among these different groups, where they will gain exposure to the commercial side of our business in addition to the core functions of each rotation. Rotations will be matched based on where there are the best development and growth opportunities for Associates.
Training provided during the rotations will offer a comprehensive understanding of the energy industry along with essential technical skills. At any point during the two-year program, a group, either within commercial support or the commercial business, can extend an offer of employment to the Associate and if they accept the offer the Associate would no longer rotate to the next group.
The US Summer Internship is a ten-week internship where you will experience a shortened version of one, or occasionally two, rotations from the full-time Operations & Finance Leadership Rotational Program.
We seek candidates who are forward thinking, solution-oriented, and passionate about building their careers. Candidates should be pursuing their Bachelor’s in Accounting, Business, Economics, Mathematics, Engineering, Finance, Statistics, Physics or a related field of study.
US campus recruitment starts annually in early August with application deadlines in mid-September. UK campus recruitment also starts in early August with application deadline in mid-October.
