Commercial Operators

Commercial operators are at the heart of energy trading—executing deals, managing vessel and cargo operations, and ensuring seamless delivery across global supply chains. They collaborate with traders, terminals, and logistics partners to optimise performance, prevent profit leakage, and unlock value at every step. This is a dynamic, fast-paced role where your operational excellence and commercial agility directly impact Shell’s bottom line and energy future.

We follow Jamie as he takes us through the highlights of his day as a commercial operator at Shell, along with a glimpse of his life outside of work.

"In operations, we support the delivery of physical power across Europe. Whenever you get on a train and see power lines, we are a part of that."
