**Context and environment**

The South African petroleum sector is highly regulated with an evolving policy framework. Over the past few years the petroleum industry has been evolving with many new non-integrated companies entering the market. As a result, the petroleum industry has become quite diverse with the spectrum of the interests of different players increasing. As a consequence, different policies, regulations and rules have a very divergent impact on different players within the market. In parallel, in order to create a climate of inclusivity, industry associations that exclusively represent players from only on a segment of a particular industry are frowned upon. It has thus become increasingly important for companies to clearly establish their individual positions on policy and regulatory matters and elevate their voice and make clear such individual position to regulatory authorities.

**To succeed in this role you will need the following qualifications, competencies, skills and attributes**:

- B Com (Economics) or Law degree. Post graduate qualification an added advantage
- Knowledge and experience within the South African petroleum industry (+10 years)
- Knowledge of the South African petroleum legislative environment (+10 years)
Pipelines Levies Act) and related Regulations will be an added advantage
- Analytical mindset and willingness to analyze information
