A career at Nexen is all about choices: to learn new skills, broaden experiences and add value that makes a lasting difference.
Our Global Family
Our Nexen family spans continents, cultures and communities. It is rich with opportunities to learn and create outstanding results. As we invest in our people, we invest in our future. So we believe in sharing knowledge across our organization and also across generations. Just as new projects, such as shale gas, incorporate learnings from our successes in Yemen and at Long Lake, employees across generations learn from each other.
For example, as new graduates join Nexen, they are rotated through a number of positions and groups. This helps them gain broader experience, clarify their interests and deepen their understanding of what it takes for Nexen to be successful. We also learn from new employees. They come with enthusiasm, fresh ideas, a tech-friendly approach and an insatiable desire to question the ‘way we’ve always done things’.
Employees are rewarded with a competitive compensation package that values performance.
Innovation at Work
Nexen is a company that encourages ‘possibility thinkers’ who can see beyond current circumstances and create innovative solutions for value creation. To promote an innovative spirit, we encourage multi-disciplinary teams where not everyone thinks the same way. We also encourage movement throughout the company. We believe you can invest your whole career under Nexen’s roof and experience a number of vastly different jobs around the globe.
Values Matter
Many employees tell us what most attracted them to Nexen is our values and the responsible way we operate globally. Because Nexen doesn’t exist without people, our values are really the collective values of our people. We live these each day — in how we conduct ourselves with ethics and integrity, operate safely, respect the environment, integrate stakeholder perspectives, support community initiatives and balance work and family life.
