Phillips 66 has been operating in the UK for over 65 years and we are as excited about our future as we are proud of our past. We are committed to improving lives, and that is our promise to our employees and communities. We are sustained by the backgrounds and experiences of our diverse teams, which reflect who we are, the environment we create and how we work together. 


Our company is built on values of safety, honour and commitment. We call our cultural mindset Our Energy in Action, which we define through four simple, intuitive behaviors: We work for the greater good, create an environment of trust, seek different perspectives and achieve excellence.


Our employees are the heart of our success, and there is a reason why we continue to attract great talent and it’s not just the excellent benefits package, or the opportunities for personal growth, it’s also the caring and committed culture of the organisation that makes everyone feel like they can bring their authentic self to work and be truly part of our team. 


Providing Energy. Improving Lives.

 

If you want work experience that really counts, consider a placement with Phillips 66. We are now looking for a Chemical Engineering student to join us for a One Year Industrial Placement starting in July 2025.

Your time will be spent on specific projects or working alongside our experienced Chemical Engineers monitoring unit operations. You’ll be given real work to do and real responsibility, either as a unit engineer looking after our process unit’s day to day running and optimisation or our refinery energy and utility management. In addition to core responsibilities you’ll be given a variety of work and experiences, including working with multiple disciplines, getting hands on site experience as well as the opportunity to get involved with maintenance inspections inside process vessels. This is a great opportunity to put your theoretical skills into practice and gain invaluable experience within a business environment.


Should you do well during your time with us, you may be considered for a graduate position upon completion of your degree.

Phillips 66 is an Equal Opportunity Employer

 

Humber Refinery is playing its part of the UK’s decarbonisation efforts.


As a part of the UK Government’s net zero ambition, the Humber Refinery is on a journey to become the Refinery of the Future. With proposed plans for a number of projects including to implement a first-of-a-kind FCC carbon capture project, the Humber Refinery is part of Humber Zero, a world-scale concept to reduce UK industry carbon emissions, saving up to 8 million tonnes of CO2 by 2030 from the Immingham industrial area.


On top of this, the Humber Refinery is the UK’s only refiner producing Sustainable Aviation Fuel at scale. It is also the only European facility producing battery anode coke, which forms a critical component for lithium-ion batteries used in electrical vehicles and in consumer electronics. Our current production of battery anode coke is equivalent to placing 1.3 million EVs on the road every year, and we are developing multiple projects to expand this capability.
