Who we are

Chevron is one of the world's leading integrated energy companies and, through its Australian subsidiaries, has been present in Australia for 70 years.

Headquartered in Perth, Western Australia, Chevron Australia is the focal point of some of Chevron’s most exciting projects globally and our employment opportunities will put you on the frontline to help deliver crucial new energy to the world.

With the ingenuity and commitment of thousands of workers, Chevron Australia operates the Gorgon and Wheatstone natural gas facilities as well as the world’s largest carbon capture and storage system at our Gorgon facility and Australia’s largest onshore oilfield on Barrow Island, Western Australia.

We also manage an equal one-sixth interest in the North West Shelf Venture and continue to be a significant investor in exploration.

Chevron Australia Downstream delivers quality fuel products and services across Australia, operating or supplying a network of more than 360 retail locations, primarily under the Puma brand, and an extensive 24-hour hour diesel stop network, as well as depots and seaboard terminals.

Our commitment to sustainability has never been stronger. We believe the future of energy is lower-carbon, and we are using our unique capabilities, assets, and expertise to deliver progress toward the global net-zero ambitions of the Paris Agreement. Within Chevron, our New Energies team is focused on areas where we believe we can build competitive advantages including hydrogen, carbon capture and storage and offsets.

Together, we are creating enduring benefits that will help shape our economic future and spearhead Australia’s growing importance as a global energy supplier.

I work in IT infrastructure. Much of my day-to-day work focuses on compliance and audit preparation (patching, vulnerability prevention and mitigation), as well as upgrading and replacing systems and hardware.

Very satisfied with work, broad range of responsibilities with enough room to find my own interesting projects to work on.

Day-to-day I support frontline engineering in critical tasks to ensure we can maintain operation. This involves start to finish of making changes on sight, documenting them for traceability and ensuring value opportunities are targeted. As a process (chemical) engineer in a multidisciplinary role this requires high level of collaboration with SMEs and frontline team to ensure the integrity of non-process decisions and clearly convey the outcome of process checks/calcs.

Pros and cons of working at Chevron Australia

Pros

  • The flexibility & hybrid work location options are very good and the condensed work week model of having every second Friday off is very nice.

  • I am given opportunities to work on interesting projects and further develop my skills.

  • Strong focus on supporting ongoing development of employees, including supporting additional tertiary education.

  • Great roles with real responsibilities, competitive salary, great work-life balance (9-day fortnight) and culture.

  • The culture within my direct [team] is friendly and collaborative. I am surrounded by the most supportive environment I've experienced in a workplace.

Cons

    • Working across timezones can be challenging.

    • Adoption of improvements can be slow, and finding relevant information can be difficult, due to the magnitude of available information across a range of internal sources.

    • Large company with people constantly moving around, so people don't know how systems work and why things were done the way they were.

    • Long graduate program.

    • Can be challenging working for a large company, lots of layers of management.
