Shaping performance. Driving progress.

KP Europe | International scope | Full-time

You're the expert who sees the bigger picture — and knows how to turn strategy into real-world impact. As Manufacturing Advisor, you guide our refineries in Europe to perform at their best. From long-term vision to day-to-day performance: your insights set the tone.

You connect teams, align manufacturing plans with strategic goals, and drive improvement across the board. Technical? Absolutely. But just as much about people, performance, and progress.

Your biggest challenge

You help refineries evolve. In a sector that never stands still, you spot what's next — and know how to make it work. You lead, challenge, advise and align. Expect variety, complexity and impact. This is your playing field:

Strategy alignment: You make sure our manufacturing strategy fits with the broader KPC vision — and that refinery budgets and plans are in sync.

Performance first: You monitor results, spark improvement, and translate insights into action. Always focused on safety, reliability and efficiency.

Cross-functional collaboration: From maintenance and operations to inspection and reliability — you bring the dots together and help teams move forward.

Smart investments: You support project assessments, align them with business goals, and guide the technical evaluation of future opportunities.

Continuous improvement: Best practices? You spot them, share them, and help implement them across our refineries and joint ventures.

Bottom line: You make sure we get the most out of every site — today and tomorrow.

This is you

  • You have 20+ years' experience in oil & gas, refining or petrochemicals — across operations, engineering, maintenance or project management
  • You know your way around capital investments, performance strategy and technical assessments
  • You're skilled in reliability engineering, downstream analysis tools and leading senior experts
  • You've managed cross-cultural teams and understand the international energy landscape
  • You hold a degree in Chemical, Mechanical or Industrial Engineering (or similar)
  • You communicate fluently in English and move confidently between cultures — from Europe to the Middle East and Asia

What's in it for you?

  • A competitive salary with extra benefits such as a company car, meal vouchers, eco vouchers and insurances
  • An international scope with impact across multiple refinery sites
  • Flexibility through hybrid working options
  • Ongoing development opportunities, coaching and support
  • A key position to influence manufacturing performance and strategy in Europe
