What's in It for You

Make your mark
Process Safety is a strong team driving effective programs, and having a strong professional join will give us the resources to do even more. In addition, you can identify and drive improvements in your area to make a good thing even better.

Employee value proposition
Par Pacific is a growing energy company that provides more opportunity and career growth potential because of our ambition, entrepreneurial mindset, premier market position, and integrated business systems.

Working at Par Pacific is different. Because Par is a smaller energy company, employees have the opportunity to make a great impact on the business and to influence decisions. People truly have amazing careers at Par because they are exposed to all areas of the company and are connected to many of the industry experts.

Unique culture
There is nothing ordinary about Par Pacific -- an unorthodox niche player in the energy space that drives operations from production to delivery. And there's certainly nothing ordinary about Par Pacific people. If you're at Par, you're a driven, creative-thinking, hardworking, entrepreneur-minded professional that loves to win. If that describes you, you'll fit right in.

Great place to live and work
Because Par Pacific is located in some of the most beautiful places throughout the country, our employees get to make these places their home and enrich their lives. You'll work in Newcastle, the county seat of Weston County, which offers the neighborly culture you'd expect in a small town. We're proud of our great schools, low cost of living, and even lower cost of housing. If you love the outdoor life, there aren't too many places to beat Newcastle.

Opportunistic growth strategy
At Par Pacific, we look for operations with strong fundamentals and great employees who can move a business forward. Our management team has deep experience in the energy industry, as well as in leading mergers, acquisitions and integrations of newly acquired companies.

Excellent compensation
In addition to a competitive compensation, we offer comprehensive benefits that include medical and dental insurance; life and AD&D insurance; retirement savings plans; employee assistance programs; and more.

Keys to Success

Your technical PSM knowledge will be essential, but just as important will be the interpersonal skills to work well with everyone from maintenance mechanics to engineers to upper management. We take a collaborative approach to safety, and you should establish yourself as a resource who can help others achieve goals and be safe at the same time. Of course, there will be time when you'll need to be assertive, such as when we're at risk of being out of compliance.

You also should take pride in working independently, including identifying priorities and monitoring deadlines. The Supervisor will give you general goals, and you should be comfortable attaining them on your own. Support will always be available, but whenever you bring an issue to the Supervisor's attention, you should also bring some ideas for resolving it.

In addition, in order to be an outstanding Process Safety Management Coordinator, you will:
  • Be proactive about getting up to speed with our processes quickly.
  • Combine analytical skills and creativity in solving problems.
  • Pay close attention to details, but also grasp the bigger picture.
  • Develop and maintain relationships with key contacts throughout the organization.
  • Remain flexible and adaptable as we continue to grow and evolve.
