Why did you decide to work for Shell? |
|
I had the opportunity to work with Shell as a summer intern and it was great. I thoroughly enjoyed my work experience and I really liked the people, so when I graduated I applied to Shell and have been here ever since!

How would you describe your role at Shell? |
|
My role as Supply Projects Manager is to coordinate the integration of global strategies and regional product quality guidelines within the Shell USA supply chain. I stay current with internal and external oil markets activities and link it to Shell oil economics. My role also involves coordinating the T&R (business planning) process within supply and the gross refinery margin element of the T&R for manufacturing and supply.

|
How would you describe your typical day? |
|
My day largely involves reading internal and external reports on oil markets. I then work with my colleagues in supply and manufacturing to execute regional work linked to global processes. I enjoy the mix of teamwork and time working on my own initiative.
|
|
Have you travelled to other countries/regions within your role? |
|
I haven't yet had the opportunity to travel with my current role, however for a previous global assignment I was lucky enough to travel to London, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Germany, Singapore, and Australia.
|
|
What do you like most about the job? |
|
I enjoy honing my expertise in the Shell supply chain business and finding out more about how the integrated Shell oil products are managed.
|
|
What are your future career plans? |
|
I'd like to move towards a larger leadership role within supply, and eventually I want to become a refinery manager.
