Looking for a job in drilling?
We don’t hire crews — but here’s where to look
We get a fair number of calls asking about rig jobs. Oil Rigs Now doesn’t own or operate any rigs and isn’t a staffing company, so we can’t offer positions ourselves. What we can do is point you toward the industry job boards and drilling contractors that do the hiring.
Oilfield & drilling-specific boards
Job search engines built specifically for oil and gas / drilling positions.
General, high-traffic boards

Oil Rigs Now is an independent marketing platform for drilling rigs and oilfield equipment — we help equipment owners and brokers list rigs and gear for sale, and we help buyers find them. We don’t own the equipment, we don’t operate rigs, and we don’t employ drilling crews.
If you’re looking to buy or sell a rig, request a quote or contact us — that’s the business we’re in. For employment, the boards and company pages above are your best starting points.
Buying or selling equipment instead?
That’s where we can actually help. Reach our Houston team about drilling rigs and oilfield equipment.
