Work With Us

Solutions are in the science.

Shakespeare hires people who want to make a material difference — on the floor, in the lab, and in the towns our plants call home. The work is demanding. The values are not optional. If that sounds like you, we should talk.

Our Values

S.C.I.E.N.C.E.

Seven values, one operating system. This is how we hire, how we run the floor, and how we treat the people who trust our materials.

  • Safety-Minded

    We protect our people first, and we do not ship a product we would not stand behind ourselves.

  • Customer Focused

    Every formula, antenna, and assembly starts with the problem the customer actually has to solve.

  • Integrity Always

    We say what we will do, then we do it — on the floor, in the lab, and with the people who buy from us.

  • Expect Excellence

    Good enough is a moving target. We measure, we test, and we keep raising the bar.

  • Never Stop Innovating

    Materials science is a long game. We keep a pipeline of better chemistries and better processes in motion.

  • Community Conscious

    The plants sit in real towns. We show up for the people next door, not just the customers far away.

  • Extreme Bias for Action

    Decisions belong close to the work. We move, we learn, and we correct in the open.

  • See yourself in these? We should talk.

Our Philanthropy

Showing up for the people next door.

Shakespeare plants sit in real communities. We fund the work that happens after the shift ends — youth programs, veteran support, and the annual golf tournament that has been writing checks for local causes for a quarter century.

The Make-A-Wish partnership is not a campaign. It is what our people asked to do with their time, and we said yes.

  • 25 years

    Charity Golf Tournament

    Associates, customers, and neighbors on the same fairway, raising money for the organizations our towns actually use.

  • Wishes granted

    Make-A-Wish Foundation

    A long partnership with the Mid-Atlantic chapter, funded by the people who clock in here every day.

  • Veterans & kids

    Where it matters most

    Disabled veterans’ programs and children’s services get the first look when we decide where the next dollar goes.
