Global Partners LP

As we continue to celebrate our new brand image, we reflect on what it means to be a family business. Through over 90 years of growth, we are proud to maintain true, authentic caring for our people at every level of the business. Global Partners is excited by the opportunity to embrace the rapidly changing industry ahead of us, knowing that our commitment to our values will lead the way.

Last week our #GlobalPInterns took a trip to one of our terminals, located in Chelsea!   During the visit, they gained insight into the vital roles that efficiency and safety play in our operations.   HR Intern, Hannah K., shared “Observing firsthand the meticulous operations that ensure seamless fuel distribution to our stations was eye-opening. My favorite part of the visit was climbing the stairs of the terminal and reaching the top, it was such a unique experience!”   Credit Intern, Paolo A., shared “The trip to the terminal at Chelsea, taught me a lot about the intricate logistics of handling and transporting energy. I am really impressed with Global's commitment to sustainability and regulatory compliance. Also, interacting with the staff at the terminal provided me with a better understanding of the operational challenges and skills required in the energy sector.” 

Global Partners appreciates the transferable skills veterans gain during their service. As a proud employer of veterans, we recognize the value they bring to our team and the diverse expertise they offer. With operations spanning fuel terminals, retail, and corporate offices, there are countless opportunities for veterans to join our civilian workforce and continue making an impact. SPC Melissa S., Field Merchandising Manager, shared, "My time in the military has been invaluable in shaping my leadership skills. Confidence, motivational team building, and communication are just a few of the many transferable skills I leveraged when looking for a job after serving. These are exactly the types of skills employers seek and can help develop into successful careers." We are committed to providing a supportive environment where veterans can thrive and build successful careers. Thank you to all veterans for your service and dedication. #HireAVeteran #GrowWithGlobal

This summer, we had the pleasure of hosting over 30 #GlobalPInterns across various departments. Our interns experienced firsthand the future of convenience retail at Alltown Fresh, observed vertical integration at our Chelsea fuel terminal, and gained valuable insights during lunch and learns with our leadership team. Throughout the summer, our interns worked in small groups on projects they presented to senior leadership and their managers. Topics included: "How can we help Global employees adjust and adapt to constant, rapid change?" "What are trends in the convenience space? Using a competitive industry analysis, show where the industry is going and how Global might fit in." "How can we reinforce a culture of innovation at Global that enables employees across all levels to be more innovative?" We always learn so much from our interns and feel fortunate to have such talented individuals with us during their summer break. We wish them the best of luck as they continue their studies and begin their careers. We're proud to be a part of the foundation for their future success. Join us in celebrating these bright young professionals! #NationalInternDay #GrowWithGlobal

Isabel M., a rising senior at the University of Massachusetts – Boston with a major in management and concentration in finance is currently a #GlobalPIntern with our carwash department.    What’s been your favorite part of the internship so far?  My favorite part of the internship has been collaborating with my fellow interns and working on our innovation project that we will present in a few short weeks.    What are you looking to do post-graduation?  Post- graduation I want to use more of my newfound time towards philanthropic endeavors and, of course, find a secure job in a company that I love. Being so close to graduation I have received a lot of professional advice, most notably being “Don’t limit yourself, get involved, it is okay to pivot”.     Has anything resonated with you in particular?  I feel that Global has created this environment where I am encouraged to jump right into action and collaborate with others. Everybody here, no matter their rank or job title, makes it fun and beneficial to collaborate with others. 

Continuing our Summer Lunch and Learn series, our #GlobalPInterns gathered with Greg Donaghue, Vice President, Controls & Strategy. Gregs advice to the interns pertained not only to career advancement, but also to making advancements in skill sets. He emphasized the importance of taking opportunities to learn everything that you possibly can whether that is within your field or in a completely different one; to be versatile with a diverse skillset.  Terminal Operations Intern, Sadbh O., shared, “Our lunch with Greg was great, it was incredibly interesting to hear about his career path and the changes he made and lessons he learned working in different positions. He also provided us with great advice as we begin our own careers that were not only applicable at Global but wherever we find ourselves after graduating.” Greg emphasized a few main takeaways to present to the interns:  “Know yourself and where you are in your career when making decisions”  “Don’t be afraid to move laterally within any company you work for”  “Get close to any industry of interest to you as early as possible”   #GrowWithGlobal

Last week our #GlobalPInterns had an exciting visit to our Alltown Fresh location in Ayer!  Adam W., Sales Intern, summed up the experience: "I loved learning about what makes Alltown Fresh different from other convenience stores. We learned about the layout of the store, met a lot of friendly staff members, and ate a wonderful Mexican-style lunch for Taco Tuesday. The food was exceptionally fresh, and I think it was better than Chipotle!"  At Alltown Fresh, the interns discovered firsthand how innovation meets convenience, as well as how every aspect of Alltown Fresh reflects a commitment to quality and community.  Austin F., IT Intern, shared: “Thank you to the Alltown Fresh team for hosting us and providing such an insightful experience. I look forward to applying these learnings to our own endeavors and continuing to push the boundaries of what's possible in retail.”
