Uqba Jamshaid Iftikhar
Finance & Accounts

I’m currently working in the Finance Department at PETRONAS Carigali Sdn Bhd, the oil and gas exploration and production subsidiary of PETRONAS. I like the challenging nature of managing a portfolio of international subsidiaries, attending to their financial reporting as well as budget and financing requirements.

PETRONAS has always maintained the emphasis on staff progression. Training and development are very much part of being a PETRONAS employee and I feel the benefits despite having been here about a year. Working with high-caliber professionals in an international corporation like PETRONAS also gives me the chance to grow and develop both personally and professionally.

Based on my personal experience, hard-working individuals are valued and rewarded here. I feel positive about the prospects of my career advancement in PETRONAS.
