About the role
As our Area Facing Data Manager for Gulf of America (GoA) Exploration, you’ll lead the data relationship for one of bp’s most significant exploration portfolios. You’ll set the data strategy for the asset, hold the pipeline of work, and be the person the business trusts when a seismic positioning or data quality question really matters.
This is still a hands-on role – you’ll be the one who solves the problems that can’t be passed on. But it comes with real autonomy. You’ll run your portfolio without day-to-day supervision, represent Digital Data Management directly to GoA Exploration leadership, lead improvement projects that span several teams, and bring on the AFDMs coming up behind you.
