What will you be doing?

We are currently looking for a highly driven, enthusiastic and hard-working editor to join our chemicals team.

The global petrochemical sector is one of the most important markets in the world. Global growth in populations and income are increasing demand for petrochemicals and their end products. At the same time the transition to technologies that produce fewer carbon emissions, are more sustainable or circular are poised to drive significant change.
