Our purpose

Energy is essential to people’s lives in every country around the globe, but its use comes with many challenges. We aim to be a leading company in the energy transition, and to achieve that, we need talented people like you. Our purpose is: Energy for people. Progress for society. Searching for better.

Working at Equinor has allowed me to witness firsthand the decision-making and actions driving the energy transition, giving me the chance to understand, influence, and contribute to shaping it.

Want to contribute to the energy transition? Do it from inside.

With us, you can enjoy exciting career opportunities, a progressive approach to diversity and work-life balance, competitive pay – and the knowledge that you’re making an important contribution to society.

A career at Equinor offers you an unparalleled opportunity to be part of a company that is working to advance the energy transition and combat climate change.

At Equinor, we want to hire people who are inspired by that cause. We’re small enough that your ideas will be seen, yet large enough to make them happen. If that resonates with you, we could be a great match.

We are continuing to shape our international oil and gas portfolio, while drawing on our extensive experience to become a top global player in offshore wind and renewables.
