Shell Assessed Internship Programme 2025 – United Kingdom

Join us as a Shell Assessed Intern and you can be a part of the future of energy.

Together we are transitioning to become a net-zero emissions business while providing the energy that people around the world need today. Working with experienced colleagues on these important challenges, you’ll have the opportunity to grow your skills – in an environment where we value honesty, integrity, and respect for one another.

Whichever part of our business you join, you will have the chance to work with experienced colleagues and share your unique perspective and fresh ideas on how to tackle energy-related challenges. That’s why we’re looking for interns who share our purpose and passion for progress.

Our inclusive and collaborative culture will equip you with the support you need to forge your own path and grow your skills as you work on meaningful projects with exciting responsibilities right from the start. At Shell, you can power your progress as we tackle the energy challenge together.

Power Your Progress

An Assessed Internship is an excellent way to get to know Shell from the inside and immerse yourself in the energy industry. It can also help you decide what career is right for you. You’ll have full day-to-day involvement in actual projects, selected to match your interests and abilities. You’ll join a project team and work alongside Shell employees who are all professionals in their fields. Their perspectives will contribute to your understanding of our business, its demands, and rewards.

A supervisor and mentor will support you directly, and you’ll undertake regular assessments throughout your internship to ensure you get the most from the experience. As part of the Assessed Internship, you’ll have a formal mid-term review with your supervisor and mentor. At the close of your internship, you will be asked to prepare a presentation about your project, and there will be discussion on project delivery and performance by your supervisor and mentor.

Internship Details:

• Typically, 10-12 weeks in your chosen business area.
• A real project with a significant level of business impact.
• Discovering which skills you need to develop, through constructive feedback.
• Developing valuable networks and contacts for future career opportunities.

You should enjoy being challenged. Rather than being daunted or overwhelmed if a task seems impossible, you should welcome the opportunity to be innovative. You also need to be good at absorbing information, analyzing problems, making objective decisions, and coming up with original ideas. You should have the drive and resilience to get things done, the flexibility to work well as part of a team, and the credibility to influence others.
