Careers

While many companies say it, at Mitchell Drilling Corporation, we really mean it when we say, "our people are our most valued resource".

To ensure the ongoing quality, service delivery and results that our clients have come to expect, we only seek out the best people to work in the vast array of roles available within our various businesses.

Whether seeking an experienced industry veteran or a "rookie" willing to learn the business from the ground up, we always put at the forefront of our selection criteria the desire from our candidates to want to improve themselves within the Mitchell Drilling Corporation environment at every opportunity.

To reward this desire, we provide them with the finest technical support people available, a senior executive group that understands on-the-job issues from their own front line experienced and a globally resourced HR management team.

A key part of our approach is the belief that youth form the future of the industry – as such, we have a comprehensive training program aimed at providing young workers a solid start and a clearly identified career path. All rookie rig personnel for example are matched with an experienced mentor and given regular skills and theory training to complement their hands-on experience.

Conversely, we also actively recruit proven performers with experience across a wide range of drilling and associated skill based operations. We take pride in that we can attract the best due to our reputation for providing experienced individuals with the support, deployment opportunities, and training necessary to reach (and exceed) their potential.

The Company offers field crew positions ranging from Drillers Assistant through to Drilling Supervisor, as well as supporting positions such as mechanics and boilermakers.

Mitchell Drilling Corporation – through Mitchell Drilling, Mitchell Pipeline and Infrastructure, Mitchell Direction Drilling, Mitchell Integrated Services and Mitchell Drilling International – employ over 300 personnel, located over three continents. It considers itself to be a world’s best practice practitioner in terms of health, safety and environmental benchmarks.
