Aberdeen Careers and Development Guide

 

These notes have been prepared for partners who wish to work, study or otherwise develop their skills or career while accompanying a Shell employee to Aberdeen. Some of the topics covered are complicated and laws are constantly changing. It is, therefore, not always possible to provide full and complete information. Where this is the case, websites and useful contacts are provided.

 

We are always keen to improve and develop this document and would be interested to hear from you if you have any other useful information or would like to see additional topics covered.

 

Please do not hesitate to contact Outpost Aberdeen for further assistance. We will be happy to discuss your particular needs and help in any way we can.
