Frac Operator 1
Location: Williston, ND but relocation is not required. The worksite is remote and the employer will pay for travel for employees between the worksite and home on a two-weeks on, one-week off schedule, and cover the cost of food and lodging at the worksite.
The employer prides itself on Safety, Efficiency and always providing the highest standard of
customer service - one that cannot be beat. Ensuring we never fall short means finding those people who can share in our vision and help deliver on our reputation. Fracturing Operators are an important part of the field operating team. It is important to always be safety minded while also being able to complete one’s duties in a timely and effective manner.
The employer is ideally looking for people with oil and gas experience, but is willing to hire those with no experience but a willingness to learn hands-on. Candidates with former military and/or construction backgrounds would be a close match, though any outdoor hands-on labor experience is relevant. The work is physically demanding, and employees are expected to work 12-14 hours of work per day. Summer is an ideal time to start and settle into the role.
Work sites will be loud and good English language skills are required.
