E KIPA MAI!

Island Energy Services (IES) is a locally managed and headquartered company offering attractive and stable career opportunities within Hawai’i’s highly competitive energy sector. We are proud to be a local company and a leader in the logistics and distribution of energy products through our network of six terminals and 50 (and growing) retail locations throughout O ʻ ahu, Maui, Kaua ʻ i, Moloka’i and Hawai’i islands.

IES is the official licensee of the Texaco brand in Hawai‘i. IES’ success is derived from our management’s keen understanding of what it takes to remain as a highly innovative business, placing significant emphasis on four key company values: “Kīnāʻole” – to do the right thing, “Aloha” – having respect for people, “Lōkahi” – teamwork, and “Hoʻohana” – work purposeful with intention.

These set of values set employee performance standards and are imbedded in our decision-making process through execution of work deliverables. IES’ strong commitment to a Culture of Excellence is embodied through our actions of the 4 B’s: how we Believe, Behave, Belong and Become. To achieve this culture, IES employs a highly trained, highly skilled, dedicated and passionate workforce that collectively operates, enhances, and strategically drives both our Retail and Terminal Logistics business units.

Actively support safe work practices and assist in reinforcing safety awareness among station staff in alignment with IES core safety values.
• Engage Station Staff as Partners Station staff are NOT technicians; they are observers and reporters. Provide basic guidance on troubleshooting (power cycle, check power source) when asked, but make clear that repairs are your responsibility. Maintain regular communication to understand patterns, frequency of issues, and perceptions of station condition and safety.
• Respond to Emergencies - Respond promptly to urgent maintenance requests and emergencies, including during off‑hours, weekends, or natural disasters. Prioritize and address issues that could impact station operations or safety to ensure timely restoration and minimal disruption.
• Teamwork - Works effectively with coworkers and others by sharing ideas in a constructive, positive manner; listening to and objectively considering ideas and suggestions from others; keeping commitments; keeping others informed of work progress and issues; addressing problems and…
