- Verify readiness of equipment, personnel competence, procedures, and risk mitigation plans prior to execution
- Escalate technical or compliance risks and recommend operational hold points where required
- Lead and participate in risk‑based audits across field operations and workshops
- Own service quality and failure notification processes, ensuring investigations, root cause analysis, and corrective actions are completed and effective
- Identify systemic technical and process risks and drive continuous improvement
- Support deployment of new technologies, field trials, and product improvements
- Interface closely with Operations, Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and Sales
What We're Looking For
Education
- Degree in Engineering, Technology, or a related technical discipline (relevant field experience considered)
Experience
- 8-12+ years in oilfield services, with experience in operations, engineering, technical support, service quality, or assurance roles
- Strong understanding of downhole tools, Well intervention, Wireline or similar well services operations
- Experience with OMS frameworks, QCPs, audits, and compliance processes is a strong advantage
- Field, rig‑site, workshop, or customer‑facing technical experience highly valued

- Confident technical professional able to challenge constructively and enforce standards
- Strong analytical skills, technical judgement, and attention to detail
- Comfortable working independently in a demanding, fast‑paced environment
- Clear communicator with strong technical writing capabilities
- Structured, data‑driven mindset focused on risk reduction and performance improvement
Why Join?
- Play a key assurance role in protecting execution quality, safety, and operational reliability
- Work at the intersection of field operations, engineering, and governance
