Job Description
Join DNO as our new Operations Manager.
DNO has entered a new phase. Following the acquisition of Sval Energi, we have become one of Norway's largest independent oil and gas companies, with interests in around 30 producing fields, multiple development projects and an ambitious growth agenda on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
Growth creates opportunity.
We are looking for an experienced Operations Manager to help lead the operational performance of our offshore portfolio—ensuring safe, reliable and efficient production while helping shape how operations evolve in a company where decisions are made by the people closest to the business.
A role at the centre of our operations
Reporting to the VP Production, you will take ownership of operational performance across DNO's operated subsea assets while supporting our wider Norwegian portfolio. You will work across the full operational value chain—from integrity management and production optimisation to maintenance strategy, risk management and operational readiness.
Your responsibilities
- Lead day-to-day operations for DNO's operated subsea production systems.
- Ensure safe, reliable and efficient production through strong operational leadership.
- Oversee subsea integrity management, maintenance strategies and fitness-for-service assessments.
- Drive barrier management, process safety and operational risk management.
- Manage interfaces with host operators and technical service providers.
- Support subsea intervention planning and execution.
- Provide operational expertise to development projects and non-operated assets.
- Ensure compliance with company management systems, regulatory requirements and industry standards.
- Contribute to operational strategy, continuous improvement and competence development.
- Represent DNO in technical discussions with partners, regulators and industry stakeholders.
Why DNO?
Few combine technical complexity, operational responsibility and the opportunity to influence the business quite like DNO. We are large enough to operate an extensive and growing portfolio of offshore assets—yet agile enough that experienced professionals have direct access to decision-makers and genuine influence on how work gets done.
Requirements
- You hold a Master's degree in Engineering or a related discipline, or possess equivalent experience.
- You have approximately 20 years of experience within offshore oil and gas operations.
- You possess extensive knowledge of subsea production systems and a thorough understanding of platforms and downstream systems.
- You have strong experience with integrity management and production-phase operations.
- You have a successful track record of working across organisational boundaries with host operators, technical service providers, and joint ventures.
- You must already have the legal right to work in Norway.
