More about Shell
An innovative place to work
There's never been a more exciting time to work at Shell.
Join us and you'll be adding your talent and imagination to a business with the ambition to shape the future - whether by investing in oil, gas and renewable energy to meet demand, exploring new ways to store energy, or developing technology that helps the world to use energy more efficiently, everyone at Shell does their part.
An inclusive place to work
To power progress, we need to attract and develop the brightest minds and make sure every voice is heard. Here are just some of the ways we are nurturing an inclusive environment - one where you can express your ideas, extend your skills, and reach your potential.
Energy transition is one of the most complex challenges to ever face humankind. Research has shown that the differences in who we are, what we've experienced, and how we think are crucial to deliver top performance. Diversity in all aspects is core to our ways of working including our hiring practices and we are committed to build a team and environment that accelerates the path towards a net zero society.
A rewarding place to work
Combine our creative, collaborative environment and global operations with an impressive range of benefits and joining Shell becomes an inspired career choice.
