About The Company

EET Fuels is a leading UK-focused downstream energy company whose main asset is the Stanlow Manufacturing Complex, one of the most advanced refineries in Europe and situated close to the major cities of Liverpool and Manchester. Stanlow is a key strategic national asset, annually producing over 16% of the UK’s Road transport fuels, while playing an important part in Britain’s petrochemical industry by providing key feedstocks.

The business is a major supplier in the Northwest and beyond with customers including most of the major retail brands operated by international oil companies and supermarkets, Manchester Airport, leading commercial airlines and the region’s trains and buses.

The business covers crude and product trading, refinery operations, HSE implementation, maintenance support and technological services, together with marketing and retail activities. Our commitment to maintaining safe and healthy working conditions and following the best operating practices to protect the environment underpins everything we do.

We employ over 900 highly trained and loyal staff, who are at the heart of everything we do. The company has an embedded safety culture, technically challenging work across the different parts of the business and some of the best training available in the energy industry.

Essar is committed to playing a key role in the decarbonisation of the UK economy, with ambitious plans to build a green energy industrial cluster at Stanlow. These include the construction of two new low carbon hydrogen production units on site as part of the HyNet consortium, with a planned total investment of approximately £750m to deliver the hydrogen production hubs. Follow on capacity growth is planned to reach 80% of the UK Government’s new target of 5GW of low carbon hydrogen for power, transport, industry and homes by 2030. Turnarounds

Stanlow Manufacturing Complex is made up of a number of small and large complex production units. In order to keep each production unit running safely and reliably at its optimum output they require ongoing maintenance, refurbishment and improvement. To facilitate this involves taking part or all of the production unit offline for a planned period of time in order to complete essential inspection and maintenance; which is known as a Turnaround. The Turnaround Team, led be a Turnaround Engineer, will compile the scope of work, plan the works and then execute them using the resources of the Turnaround Team, wider ESSAR team (Civils, Engineering, Inspection, Operations, Projects, etc.) and specialised contractors. The size of a turnaround can involve as little as 30 to in excess of 800 people.

The Role – Graduate Turnaround Engineer

Non-Rotational Graduate Programme – a three year programme that focuses on developing the skills and experience required to manage a plant Turnaround. There will be a range of internal rotations within specific departments to provide you with an overview and understanding of how various departments (i.e. inspection, engineering, planning/scheduling, etc.) contribute to the overall success of a Turnaround. Finally you will use the knowledge gained to specialise as a Turnaround Engineer. In this role you will work with an experienced Turnaround Engineer to deliver turnarounds and ultimately take responsibility for the delivery and execution of your own turnaround.
