Requisition is for AIChE 2021 Conference

This is an exciting and unique opportunity to work around the world as part of a Field Operating Service (FOS) team, supported by technology experts from UOP’s Operating Technical Service. FOS advisors are on-site prior, during and after the initial start-up of UOP technologies. They help to ensure that the plant and operators are ready for commissioning. Advisors are also involved in the start-up and test runs that demonstrate guarantees and are accountable for process, equipment, refining and petrochemical insight and assist customers in resolving engineering and operating issues. 
UOP advisors may remain at a site for a few days to several months for each assignment. For each start-up, advisors work with a number of UOP-licensed processes and a variety of individuals within and outside of UOP. The experience gained from each assignment, and the subsequent interaction with other UOP employees, provide a solid background for assessing and solving problems encountered in each situation in various locations around the world. 
As advisors gain experience they have opportunities to advance to positions of increased accountability within the FOS organization.
