About PetroTeach

PetroTeach is a Norwegian training and consultancy company providing professional technical training, customized learning solutions, and consultancy services to organizations and professionals across the energy industry. Our portfolio covers a wide range of disciplines across Upstream, Midstream, and Downstream. Our courses are delivered by experienced industry professionals through public, in-house, and online programs at various international locations. As PetroTeach continues to expand internationally, we are seeking experienced business development professionals and established local companies to represent and promote PetroTeach’s training and consultancy services in selected international markets. The collaboration will be based on business generated, with an agreed commission structure.

The Opportunity

PetroTeach offers two flexible models of collaboration: experienced individuals may work with us as independent Business Development Representatives, while established companies may collaborate with PetroTeach as Local Partners within their respective markets. Partners will identify business opportunities, establish relationships with potential clients, promote PetroTeach’s training and consultancy portfolio, and support the development of commercial opportunities from initial contact through contract award. This is an independent, commission-based collaboration and does not constitute an employment or staff position with PetroTeach.

Key Responsibilities

• Identify new business opportunities for PetroTeach’s training and consultancy services.
• Develop relationships with energy companies, EPC contractors, government organizations, training institutions, and other potential clients.
• Introduce and promote PetroTeach to relevant HR, L&D, Technical, Procurement, and management decision-makers.
• Identify client requirements for public courses, in-house training, customized programs, and consultancy services.
• Generate and develop qualified leads within the representative’s local or regional market.
• Support PetroTeach in preparing proposals, commercial discussions, negotiations, and client follow-up.
• Develop local networks and identify tenders, framework agreements, vendor-registration opportunities, and strategic partnerships.
• Act as a professional local representative of PetroTeach and provide relevant market intelligence and client feedback.

Who We Are Looking For:

We welcome applications and expressions of interest from:

Individual Professionals — experienced business development, sales, consultancy, or energy-sector professionals with strong local networks and access to potential clients.

Companies / Local Partners — established companies with strong relationships in the Oil & Gas and Energy sectors that are interested in representing PetroTeach and developing training and consultancy opportunities within their local market.

The ideal Representatives or Local Partners should have:

• Demonstrated network within the Oil & Gas, Energy, EPC, government, or industrial sectors.
• Ability to identify opportunities and establish relationships with key decision-makers.
• Experience in B2B business development, sales, consultancy, training, or professional services is preferred.
• Good understanding of the local business environment and procurement practices.
• Strong communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.
• Ability to work independently and coordinate effectively with the PetroTeach team.
• Good command of English; local-language capability is highly valuable.

Compensation / Commercial Model

This opportunity is offered on an independent, commission-based basis. PetroTeach does not offer a staff employment position under this arrangement. Successful representatives and Local Partners will receive an agreed commission for business generated and successfully contracted through their activities. The detailed commission structure, territory, responsibilities, and commercial terms will be agreed individually with selected representatives or partner companies.

How to Apply

• Individuals: Please provide your CV, country/market coverage, relevant industry experience, and a brief description of your professional network and business development experience.
• Companies / Local Partners: Please provide your company profile, country/territory of operation, relevant industry experience, existing client network, and a brief description of how you propose to represent and develop PetroTeach in your market.
