Argus is where smart people belong and where they can grow. We answer the challenge of illuminating markets and shaping new futures.

We are currently looking for a highly driven, enthusiastic and hard-working editor to join our chemicals team.

Argus’s petrochemicals team is well-respected by the chemicals industry, covering all the major base chemicals with daily and weekly market reports, monthly analysis and outlooks, long-term capacity databases and supply-demand balances and special projects.

You will have primary responsibility for daily and weekly market reports within a defined product area, but could also be tasked with covering related or adjacent markets as required to support the wider team. The principal elements of the role are price reporting and editorial coverage.

In this role, you will work closely with the other petrochemical editors, consultants and reporters across Asia and the regional offices, as well as other editorial teams, management, data and production, business development, sales, marketing, consulting and conferences.

The global petrochemical sector is one of the most important markets in the world. Global growth in populations and income are increasing demand for petrochemicals and their end products. At the same time the transition to technologies that produce fewer carbon emissions, are more sustainable or circular are poised to drive significant change.
