Where you fit in

In February 2021, Shell launched Powering Progress which sets out our strategy to accelerate the transition of our business to net-zero emissions, in step with society, purposefully and profitably. Climate change is an urgent challenge, and the world will need to find a way to meet growing demand, while transitioning to a net-zero emissions energy system to counter climate change.

The Strategy, Portfolio & Sustainability (SX) organisation supports Royal Dutch Shell's Executive Committee and business in their strategic choices. It informs and defines the overarching Group strategy and the annual Strategy Agenda by strategy formulation, advising on portfolio decisions, bespoke strategy projects, and thought leadership. The Powering Progress strategy has fully aligned our sustainability strategy and business strategy in one place. Through this, SX will be accountable for leading the Energy Transition agenda for Shell.

As a Strategy Consultant, you will be part of the RDS Strategy Consultancy Group within SX and report to the Strategy Consultancy Manager, East. You will be working with some of the most senior leaders to establish business value and future direction.

What's the role?

In this role, your remit will stretch from defining a business problem to providing clear business-based and implementable recommendations. You'll draw on internal and external data and weigh many different perspectives.

You can look forward to working on a breadth of strategy projects, across the various global Shell Businesses of Upstream, Downstream, Integrated Gas and Renewables. These projects are fast paced and typically run over 3-4 months each. You'll work with senior leaders such as Executive VPs and Executive Committee members across different Shell businesses and geographies (Europe, Asia, Americas) developing an influential network and an impressive CV.

Whilst there's no direct line management responsibility, you'll need the all-round people skills to direct small, virtual project teams, harnessing the creativity of others, and to cultivate fruitful stakeholder relationships that help you really understand the problem from your customer's perspective.

We're keen to hear from individuals with strong commercial knowledge and someone who can be conversant with what makes Shell profitable and the challenges facing our business.

We're huge advocates for career development. We'll encourage you to try new roles and experience new settings. By pushing people to reach their potential, we frequently help them find skills they never knew they had, or make career moves they never thought possible.

Please do note that we follow a specific template for the highlighted parts. If there's a need for any modification, we will reach out to the Marketing Team to get their approval. I highly suggest that if we want to add anything to this, that we include them on the first part of the JD instead.
