When the cultivated Scottish voice of Guy Jubb meted out his objections to the pay report at the Shell meeting in The Hague this week, it was backed by many years of campaigning.
The head of corporate governance at Standard Life since 1992, he has been doggedly consistent about discipline by boards on matters of pay – his complaints to Shell date back to 2003.
He was also among investors that voted down the GlaxoSmithKline pay report in 2003, which included a golden parachute for Jean-Pierre Garnier, in a historic vote in UK corporate governance records.
But his pay campaigns date further back to the 90s, when targets included GEC and, later, the establishment boards behind BA, BT and Marconi, among others.
Mr Jubb has a reputation for being very clear on complex issues, helped by training as an accountant.
Born in 1952, he did his chartered accountancy apprenticeship with Whinney Murray in Edinburgh in 1973 after graduating from Edinburgh University.
After eight years of accounting he went to the NatWest merchant banking arm, County, in 1981, and then joined Touche Ross in corporate finance in 1984. Just before a bear market in 1986, he went into fund management at Standard Life, as a marketer, and two years later set up a smaller companies team.
He shows no signs of giving up on his boardroom bugbears, led by long-term pay incentives for executives.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
