Madrid-based CEPSA is expanding its worldwide operations and is looking for people to grow with it.

"We are recruiting a wide group," CEPSA's Maria de Santos Galindez told Rigzone at the 2012 Offshore Technology Conference.

Galindez, who specializes in E&P Recruitment, Training and Development with CEPSA's Human Resources division, said the company is particularly interested in job candidates to fill senior-level geoscience and operations professionals.

"We are looking at new possibilities," said Galindez. "We have multiple opportunities now."

A sampling of vacancies at CEPSA – but certainly not an exhaustive list – includes:

• senior-level geophysicists
• production engineers
• production technologists
• reservoir engineers
• completion engineers
• DST engineers

Galindez and other CEPSA reps are on-hand this week at Rigzone's Recruiting Now Pavilion (Booth 5069) to educate OTC attendees about opportunities at the Spanish company. OTC 2012 runs through Thursday at Houston's Reliant Center.

Not to exclude the oil and gas industry's next generation, CEPSA also hires students to build careers with the company.

CEPSA's current E&P operational focus includes countries such as Algeria, Colombia, Egypt, Peru and Spain. Also, the company is expanding its exploration role in Brazil. Given the company's ambitious growth plans, a longer list of locations for E&P activities is certainly within the realm of possibility.

Although CEPSA aims to cast a larger presence in the industry, Galindez is quick to point out the company still offers a closely knit work environment that values individual contributions.

"You are not a number, you are a person," concluded Galindez. "I think that's the best thing about the company."
