Job Summary:

The Health, Safety, Environment & Operations Integrity (HSE & OI) Communications Senior Specialist plays a key role within the Performance unit, working as part of a small high-impact team responsible for shaping how SLB communicates one of its most critical priorities: protecting people, strengthening operational performance and driving a culture of continuous improvement.

• Continuously improve communication channels (intranet, email, digital signage, webcasts, social) to increase reach and engagement.
• Ensure messaging is consistent, on-brand and aligned with SLB's corporate narrative.

Measurement & impact

• Track and analyze communication effectiveness (open rates, engagement, click- through rates and other key metrics).
• Use insights to refine content, improve performance and inform future campaigns.

Collaboration & alignment

• Partner with Executive, Internal, External, Brand, Division and Regional Communications teams to deliver integrated campaigns.
• Work closely with HSE & OI executive leaders and subject matter experts to ensure accurate, timely and impactful messaging.
• Ensure alignment with SLB brand standards and corporate messaging.
