Interview
Who we are and where we operate
Established in 2011, we are the company behind the Shell and Engen brands across many African markets.
The Vivo Energy story is an African story – one of robust demographic trends driving dynamic and sustained growth, in a continent on the move.
Our business brings together the power of great brands and the flexibility of a vibrant, entrepreneurial corporate culture.
We have businesses operating in 28 markets across Africa, supported by teams in the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands.
Why work for us?
We do things differently at Vivo Energy. Not for the sake of being different but because our operating culture of ‘focus, speak up, simplify and perform’ drives us to concentrate on the core issues of our business.
This philosophy determines our way of working and underpins everything we say and do. It places demands on all of us. It creates expectations with our customers and business partners. And it generates opportunities for anyone with the drive and initiative to make the most of them.
To succeed at Vivo Energy you need to take part, show initiative, make decisions and always look for ways to do things better. We’re looking for people who think smarter, understand our vision and the wider commercial picture, and have an insatiable curiosity about our business. People who want to make a difference and have the energy, professionalism and drive to challenge convention, motivate others and achieve more.
