Our Graduate Program: an Immersion in the World of Multi-Energy Trading

The TotalEnergies trading Graduate Program offers a unique opportunity to discover the inner workings of multi-energy trading, develop strong technical skills and build a global understanding of our businesses and the value chain.

A structured journey at the core of our activities

Lasting two years, the Graduate Program is built around four six-month assignments within our main trading hubs — Geneva, Houston and Singapore.

Participants successively explore three key functions in trading:

  • Middle Office
  • Trading Operations
  • Market Analysis

A fourth assignment is defined according to individual interests and business needs, with the possibility of an international rotation — a distinctive advantage of the program.

This immersive journey provides a comprehensive view of the trading value chain and deepens the understanding of how teams interact.

It also offers exposure to the diversity of our multi-energy portfolio, through assignments that may involve oil, natural gas, or low-carbon power.

The program includes a structured training path: onboarding week, technical and behavioral training, negotiation techniques, on-the-job learning, mentoring by our Talent Developers, and regular follow-up throughout the experience.

Explore our three core functions

The Graduate Program provides hands-on experience across
three key trading roles through concrete, on-the-job assignments.

  • Trading operator

    Securing the execution of operations

    The Trading Operator ensures the proper execution of physical operations on global energy markets. They oversee the entire transaction lifecycle — from contract validation and logistical coordination to delivery follow-up and incident management.

    Their mission: to work closely with traders, charterers and support teams to secure flows, minimize risks and maximize deal value.

    A profession of precision, reactivity, and reliability — a key link in the trading execution chain.
