Our learning curriculum contains a wide range of resources and content: from face-to-face commercial and technical learning programmes to online courses, webcasts, e-books and guides.

We live our core values of honesty, integrity and respect, so you can work in an environment that encourages you to be the best version of yourself and respects the individual journeys each of us will take. Our values and how we care for people are an important part of life at Shell.

Shell aims to become one of the most diverse and inclusive organisations in the world, where everyone feels valued and belongs. We support this through 126+ employee networks across 30+ countries, representing a wide range of groups, including gender, ethnicity, LGBTQ+, disability, and more.

Each new joiner is assigned an ‘On-boarding buddy’ or ‘Graduate buddy’ who will help familiarise you with the way that we work at Shell.

Our supportive network will help you settle in, build friendships and offer you an exciting opportunity to lead or coordinate business or community activities.

Our culture is informal, with a flat hierarchy. Doors to senior management are open for everyone to discuss their views and ask questions, because we believe that accessible colleagues accelerate learning.

We have a recognised culture of achieving goals through teamwork. It’s a global success, which comes from our unique combination of physical, remote and virtual teams delivering exciting projects, and championing cross-cultural differences.

Shell provides globally competitive compensation and benefits packages, tailored to local markets. Many locations offer subsidised services like sports facilities and medical care, as well as opportunities to participate in the Shell Share programme, enabling you to purchase shares of company stock at a lower price.

We have flexible working arrangements and paid time off that help you achieve a fulfilling work-life balance. For example, we offer global minimum maternity, paternity, and non-birthing parental leave. Just one of the many flexible working policies we have in place to ensure you have more time to do the things you love.
