Opportunity: Natural Gas – Manager

Ada sebuah lowongan yang menurut saya sangat menarik. Menarik karena ini adalah posisi manager dan berstatus pegawai tetap dengan fasilitas yang tentunya juga menarik.

Fasilitasnya adalah:

1. Gaji: 70,000 – 85,000 poundsterling per tahun
2. Bonus: kira-kira 25% dari Gaji Tahunan
3. Private Medical Insurance
4. Life Insurance
5. Plus standard benefit lainnya.

Walaupun posisinya manager yang lebih kearah Commercial, tapi yang diperlukan malah Engineer yang mempunyai pengalaman yang kuat dibidang Detail Engineering.

Waktu itu saya sempat diskusi panjang sama Head Hunternya, dan sudah siap mengajukan CV, tapi saya tidak melanjutkan sampai ke proses interview berhubung pekerjaan saya saat ini belum selesai, dan memang belum mau pindah.

Berikut ini saya mau share tentang apa dan bagaimana opportunitynya.

Opportunity ini adalah sebagai Manager – untuk bidang Natural Gas, berkedudukan di London.

Perusahaanya adalah, mereka sebut sebagai “Boutique Consultancy Firm” yang khusus bergerak dibidang Energy. Nama perusahaannya adalah Nexant.

Ini kira-kira bunyi leafletnya:

The Oil & Gas and Chemicals practices span the entire value chain. The Oil & gas practice encompasses all aspects of E&P, through to the downstream sub-sector; the Chemicals practice includes a number of speciality chemicals. The organisation boasts deep insight and understanding within the petroleum and chemicals industries. This is achieved through extensive industry knowledge, proven and tested methodologies, and in-house data.

Their Upstream & Gas practice provides specialist advice on resource evaluations, licensing, market strategy, pricing as well as technical and commercial support to gas and LNG developments. They provide master planning, policy and regulatory advice to governments, they undertake feasibility studies, evaluate technology and provide strategic, technical and operational advice to industry players and conduct due diligence on energy projects for financial institutions.

As part of the expansion of its consulting services, Nexant is seeking highly qualified Managers to identify, develop and lead new consulting assignments, and make a significant contribution to the success of the practice.

To be considered you will need to demonstrate:

• At depth of relevant experience in the oil and gas industry or with a blue chip consultancy.
• A proven track record in developing advisory assignments in the gas sector.
• A strong understanding of gas and LNG technology
• Excellent analytical and problem solving skills.
• Excellent communications skills and the ability to succinctly articulate a business case to senior management, investors, government officials and colleagues.
• To have high level interpersonal skills, and the conviction and drive to convince and reassure both clients and colleagues

Akhirnya saya mikir juga, sebenarnya, peluang kerja itu tidak hanya dibidang EPC & Client saja, ada perusahaan Consultancy seperti ini. Jujur saja saya bilang sama dia bahwa saya belum pernah mendengar nama perusahaan tersebut.

Mereka tertarik dengan latar belakang saya yang banyak mengerjakan bermacam Project khususnya LNG Project.

Jadi, kalau anda sudah matang di Engineering, memahami project scope of work, process technoogy yang digunakan di LNG Plant, Petrochemical Plant, maka peluang selanjutnya dalam karir anda akan terbuka luas, tidak hanya dibidang Engineering, tapi mulai merambah kearah Commercial.

The bottom line is: never stop learning and reading. You never know where you will end up. Better to prapare yourself.
