Are you a recent Nigerian graduate looking to kick-start your career in a global energy company? The TotalEnergies Young Graduate Program might be the opportunity that changes everything.
This highly competitive and career-transforming initiative by TotalEnergies Marketing Nigeria Plc is designed to develop young professionals with world-class experience both locally and internationally. With hands-on training, cross-border exposure, and real industry involvement, this program offers far more than just a line on your CV — it’s a true career launchpad.
About the Program
The TotalEnergies Young Graduate Program is a structured 18-month development journey that immerses fresh graduates into the inner workings of one of the world’s most influential energy companies. The program is divided into two phases:
- Phase 1: 6 months of intensive work experience in Nigeria, where candidates contribute to live projects in areas such as Finance, Strategy, Business, or Economics.
- Phase 2: 12 months of international experience in another African affiliate or at TotalEnergies headquarters in Paris — depending on performance, availability, and business needs.
It’s not just a program. It’s a passport to becoming a globally relevant professional.
Why This Program Stands Out
- Global Exposure: Candidates gain the chance to work across borders, build international networks, and understand global energy dynamics.
- Real Work. Real Impact: This isn’t job shadowing. From day one, young graduates contribute meaningfully to the company’s operations and strategy.
- Mentorship and Learning: Participants receive mentoring and performance feedback, helping them sharpen their professional edge.
- Career Pathway: High performers could be considered for long-term opportunities within the TotalEnergies network after the program.
Context & Environment
The Young Graduate program is an opportunity for young people to discover working life through a genuine hands-on professional experience while benefiting from international exposure just after graduating from university.
