As a Strategic Sourcing Analyst, my work requires me to come up with Sourcing Strategies for upstream activities. The areas I’m heavily involved in are drilling rigs and marine vessels. I need to have the ability to absorb information, understand market situations, analyse problems, make facts-based decisions and propose innovative solutions.
Every day is like a new adventure. There are so many exciting things to explore and discover, like the latest technologies, new players in the industry, new equipment and materials and even new terminologies. I meet people from diverse backgrounds, from senior drilling engineers to marine captions to be able to leverage on their expertise. I have even been able to build up my confidence in public speaking by regularly presenting strategy papers to the management.
Personal development alternatives are unrivalled. The company invests heavily in training and development. With flexible career paths and a continuous learning culture, PETRONAS provides an enriching and valuable experience. I get to drive my own pace for personal development and build a successful career portfolio for myself.
PETRONAS is a company that I’ve learnt to love and respect. I just need to take a glimpse outside my office to feel a sense of pride. At the same time, when I gaze outwards while taking in the view of the incredible city skyline, I feel so blessed to be where I’m now, enjoying this beautiful panorama, sitting in one of world’s tallest buildings and working for this amazing company.
