At EY, we’re all in to shape your future with confidence.
We’ll help you succeed in a globally connected powerhouse of diverse teams and take your career wherever you want it to go. Join EY and help to build a better working world.
The opportunity
#O&G
At EY Consulting, we are building a better working world by transforming businesses through the power of people, technology, and innovation. Our clients are at the heart of what we do. We’re focused on solving the key issues of our client buyers, building deeper relationships, and generating lasting value with significant impact.
Our firm sets the standard for consulting services, fostering an environment that encourages career ownership at every stage. As a part of our team, you'll be at the forefront of this dynamic service line, driving change and delivering solutions that revolutionize business operations. You’ll help our clients in transformation and innovation efforts: driving growth, reducing costs, and building future-ready organizations.
Your key responsibilities
EY’s Transformation Architecture and Delivery (TAD) practice offers a dynamic career path for professionals passionate about solving complex business, technology, and engineering challenges. As a Senior, you’ll help Oil & Gas and energy clients deliver transformation initiatives and capital project programs across the full asset lifecycle, contributing to architecture frameworks, program management, project controls, and value realization. You'll have the opportunity to build your career across TAD Business and TAD Technology Strategy teams based on your strengths and interests.
TAD Business: Partner with Oil & Gas and energy clients to plan and deliver capital programs and transformation initiatives through TMO/PMO frameworks, including stage-gate (FEL/FEED) governance, EPC and contractor oversight, and project controls (cost, schedule, risk, earned value). You’ll apply Agile and Waterfall methods, shape CAPEX governance and business cases, and drive value realization from project sanction through commissioning and handover.
TAD Technology Strategy: Help Oil & Gas and energy clients align technology investments with business and capital project priorities. You’ll design technology operating models, optimize cost and sourcing, support M&A integration, and enable engineering data, asset information management, digital twins, and integrated project controls platforms to improve capital efficiency and asset performance.
Industry sectors
Our practice serves clients across industries, with a focus on Oil & Gas (upstream, midstream, and downstream), Power & Utilities, Chemicals, and other capital-intensive sectors.

- Bachelor’s degree (engineering or related field preferred) and 2–4+ years of experience in capital projects, engineering, technology strategy, transformation, or program management, ideally in Oil & Gas or energy
- Consulting or industry experience supporting client-facing transformation programs or capital projects
- Experience using AI-enabled tools (e.g., Copilot, ChatGPT) to enhance productivity and analysis
- Strong leadership, collaboration, and communication skills, with the ability to translate complex concepts into clear, actionable insights
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, and commercial skills with an agile, execution-oriented mindset
- Willingness to travel and work flexible hours based on client needs (65 – 80%)
- Access to reliable transportation to/from EY offices and client sites, as required
Ideally, you will have:
- Experience with PMO/EPMO set-up, capital project governance, and end-to-end program or portfolio delivery
- Experience across the Oil & Gas capital project lifecycle, including FEL/stage-gate, FEED, EPC management, project controls, turnarounds, and commissioning
- Experience with technology operating models, roadmaps, enterprise architecture, and engineering and asset information management
- Familiarity with project controls and delivery tools (e.g., Primavera P6, EcoSys, MS Project, Jira) and methodologies (Agile, Scrum, Waterfall)

Tips for Your Oil And Gas Job Search
Tailor your resume for asset type
Upstream, midstream, and downstream roles require different technical vocabularies. Hiring managers in refining want to see process safety and turnaround experience, while upstream teams look for well planning and completion expertise. Match your resume language to the specific asset class you're targeting.
List certifications prominently on applications
H2S Alive, BOSIET, API, and IADC certifications are often hard filters in oil and gas screening. Put them in a dedicated section near the top of your resume so applicant tracking systems and recruiters flag your file before reading your work history.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists oil and gas openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target operators and service companies separately
Operators like majors and independents hire for asset ownership roles, while oilfield services companies hire for equipment, drilling, and completion services. Your resume framing and the terminology you use should shift depending on which type of employer you're approaching.
Prepare for competency-based technical interviews
Oil and gas interviews frequently use structured competency frameworks where you're scored on safety culture, technical knowledge, and past project outcomes. Prepare specific examples using the situation-task-action-result format for incidents, shutdowns, or engineering decisions you've led.
Negotiate relocation and per diem separately
Many oil and gas offers include a base salary plus field allowances, rotational schedules, and relocation packages that are negotiable independently of each other. Understand the full compensation structure before accepting, and ask specifically about turnaround premiums and offshore differential pay.
Oil And Gas Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most oil and gas professionals?
Keystone Clearwater Solutions, Bowman, and Burns & McDonnell are hiring the most oil and gass right now, with openings concentrated in Texas, Pennsylvania, and Colorado, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Both operators and oilfield services companies are actively posting across engineering, operations, and HSE roles.
How many oil and gas jobs are remote?
About 63% of oil and gas openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the field-intensive nature of most roles in the industry. Remote opportunities are most common in corporate functions such as reservoir engineering, geoscience interpretation, procurement, and regulatory compliance, where work is data- and document-driven rather than site-dependent.
How do you become an oil and gas professional?
Most oil and gas careers start with a degree in petroleum, chemical, mechanical, or geoscience engineering, followed by entry-level roles in field operations, drilling, or process engineering. Building hands-on field experience early, earning relevant safety certifications such as H2S Alive or BOSIET, and developing proficiency in industry simulation software strengthens your candidacy significantly. Rotational graduate programs at major operators are a common structured entry point.
How do you get hired in oil and gas with little experience?
Entry into oil and gas without direct experience is most accessible through field technician, roustabout, or junior engineering roles that prioritize physical readiness, safety awareness, and a willingness to work rotational schedules. Completing safety certifications before applying signals commitment and clears a common early screening filter. Internships through university petroleum engineering programs and co-op placements at oilfield services companies are also reliable pathways into the industry.
What does the oil and gas interview process look like?
The process typically begins with a recruiter or HR screen focused on certifications, availability, and willingness to relocate or work rotations. A technical interview follows, often involving scenario-based questions on drilling decisions, safety incidents, or process engineering challenges. Senior or field roles may include a panel interview with operations leadership, and offshore roles sometimes require a pre-employment medical and fitness assessment before an offer is extended.
Where can I find and apply to oil and gas jobs?
You can find and apply to oil and gas jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States in one place. Search for roles that match your specialization, experience level, and preferred location, then apply directly to each listing that fits your background.
