Working approximately 12 hours per day while on rotation POSITION OVERVIEW – Well Site Manager IThe Well Site Manager directs all day-to-day operations on location, serving as the company's sole representative on the well site — the person rig contractors and third-party crews answer to when decisions need to be made in real time. This role owns safety and regulatory compliance on site, oversees completion and workover operations against company standards and best oilfield practices, and provides engineering support across completion design, fracture treatment planning, and production optimization.

• Provide support to the engineering team on a variety of subjects, including completion designs, workover and fishing jobs, and production facility modifications REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
• Degree in an engineering discipline preferred; strong hands-on completions/workover experience will be considered in lieu of a degree
• 8–10 years of inspection/operations experience in the Oil & Gas industry, with proven time specifically as a well site leader or company man — general field experience alone is not sufficient
• Current well control certificate required (IADC)
• Significant exposure to additional areas of completion operations, including wireline, fishing, pressure pumping, TCP, and pump-down operations
• Demonstrated leader with excellent management, supervisory, and communication skills
• Proficiency reporting with a variety of systems, including Well View
• Working knowledge of OSHA and EPA Health & Safety regulations
