BP is one of the world’s largest companies. From the deep sea to the desert, from rigs to retail, they deliver energy products and services to people around the world.
BP has a diverse portfolio across businesses, resource types and geographies. It has UK-based headquarters and operates in 73 countries across six continents, employing 73,000 people.
As the world demands more energy, it also demands that it be produced and delivered in new ways, with fewer emissions. BP is meeting this dual challenge by adapting to change and working towards the transition to renewable energy, and to make all forms of energy cleaner and better.
Such an evolving business and fast-changing industry requires a finance function that adapts to provide the professional support it needs.
BP’s Global Business Services (GBS) provides support to a wide range of distinct businesses across the BP group, via global functions including finance, HR, procurement, customer service and global solutions.
Finance teams in BP also operate centres of excellence for tax, treasury and audit. With several thousand finance staff globally, driving change requires vision, planning and technological innovation.
We spoke to Graham Collins, FCMA, CGMA, VP of Digital Transformation, and Frances Howat, ACMA, CGMA, Head of Capability Development for finance.
