Well Site Manager - Completions
About the role
The client is a Fortune 100 Oil and Gas Company, a globally recognized leader in energy production and one of the biggest companies in the United States. The position is located in Minot, North Dakota, 58701. The term is 1 year with a strong likelihood of extension or conversion. The 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. Success in this role depends on hands-on well site leadership experience, not just general field exposure — this is the person accountable for keeping operations safe, compliant, and on track when things get complicated in the field.
