What’s the role

Strategic Communications and Brand is an integrated team of communications, employee engagement, and brand professionals that combine compelling storytelling, creative content and data-led insights with media, campaign, and reputation strategy.

Strategic Communications and Brand is accountable for engaging our employees to drive performance and for telling the story of Shell to the world – enabling the character and competence of our company to be seen and understood by priority audiences. We want them to understand our investment case, our culture, our values, the things we believe, the decisions we make and the actions we take.

As part of the Strategic Communications and Brand team, you’ll support a single, core narrative for Shell. There will be a focus on integrating across teams and ensuring we share a consistent story that we amplify across platforms and campaigns. This is an exciting time to join the team, as we test new opportunities, foster a learner mindset and continue to embrace new ways of working.  

The Editor/Speechwriter is an experienced senior writer and editor sitting in a cross-platform, multi-media Group Content team that produces creative ‘hero’ and day-to-day content for Shell’s corporate channel mix, campaigns, and publications.

What you’ll be doing

  • Reporting to the Head of Group Content, the Editor/Speechwriter writes and edits content capable of delivering maximum impact across a wide range of channels.

  • The Editor/Speechwriter writes flagship speeches and other content for Executive Committee (EC) or Board members, aligning with the corporate narrative and maintaining a consistent tone of voice.

  • The Editor/Speechwriter researches, plans, and develops content in support of our external corporate campaigns and communications, and edits other content developed by colleagues. You work closely with the wider Group Content, Campaigns, Digital Strategy & Channels, Financial, Business and Internal Communications teams, and with agency support when required.

  • The Editor/Speechwriter also helps develop the team’s capabilities, including through mentorship of more junior colleagues.

What you bring

  • Significant experience of writing and editing corporate and regulatory content, with a track record of high-quality, high-profile work often to tight deadlines.

  • Significant experience of speechwriting for senior leaders in a corporate or government setting.

  • Significant experience of working with senior stakeholders to research and distill complex topics into engaging, accurate content suitable for a variety of mediums and audiences.

  • Highly collaborative, with extremely strong interpersonal and communication skills.

  • Self-starter able to operate amid ambiguity, and to be proactive.

  • Strong strategic-thinking skills and an ability to exercise sound judgement.

  • Courage to try new initiatives and ways of working to enable Shell to deliver content that cuts through.

  • Demonstrate a learner mindset: role-model curiosity and reflection and encourage people to learn from their mistakes and successes.

  • Enable the best possible performance by collaborating and working across teams to achieve maximum commercial value for Shell as a whole.

  • Perform at your best with a competitive starting salary and annual performance related salary increase – our pay and benefits packages are considered to be among the best in the world.

  • Take advantage of paid parental leave, including for non-birthing parents.

  • Join an organisation working to become one of the most diverse and inclusive in the world. We strongly encourage applicants of all genders, ages, ethnicities, cultures, abilities, sexual orientation, and life experiences to apply.
