Director, Refining Strategy

Phillips 66 & YOU - Together we can fuel the future

As a Director, Refining Strategy supporting Refining, you will lead the development of enterprise-aligned strategies and policies that help our refining business compete and win in a changing energy landscape. You will connect market, operational, commercial, and functional insights to shape direction, guide investment and capability choices, and turn strategy into practical plans that strengthen safety, reliability, profitability, and long-term competitiveness. This is an opportunity to influence decisions across a large, complex organization while building the capabilities and partnerships needed to deliver results.

At Phillips 66, Lead Forward is our leadership approach. It defines how leaders show up, make decisions, and support their teams while delivering results in a complex, fast-changing environment. Leaders who lead other leaders are expected to scale strong leadership across teams. This includes coaching leaders, aligning work to strategy, and breaking down barriers so teams can work together effectively. You’ll guide others through change, encourage sound decision-making, and ensure accountability for results.

- Lead enterprise-aligned strategy and policy development for Refining, translating Phillips 66's mission, vision, and strategic priorities into clear objectives, actionable plans, and competitive advantages while modeling integrity in decisions and commitments.

- Partner across refining operations, commercial, functional, and corporate teams to align priorities, remove barriers, share information early, and create integrated solutions rather than disconnected plans.

- Build organizational capability by setting clear direction, clarifying roles, coaching leaders and project teams, and bringing together diverse skills and perspectives to deliver a shared vision.

- Advise leaders on policies, governance, standards, and strategic issues, including complex or contentious matters, and represent the strategy and policy function with credibility across the organization and with external stakeholders as appropriate.

- Establish planning, budgeting, and performance-management routines that connect strategy to resource decisions, measure progress against commitments, and adjust plans to sustain safety, reliability, efficiency, and financial performance.
