At Total Drilling Services, we recognize that our success and reputation is built upon the skill, dedication and professionalism of our employees.

Whilst we primarily focus on attracting and retaining the most experienced and professional industry personnel, we are committed to the training, education and upskilling of our employees.

Driller Supervisors

In addition to drilling, we are always looking for working supervisors for our smaller sites where there is no full-time dedicated site supervisor. These positions are ideally suited to persons aiming to eventually move into a full-time supervisory role or those experienced drillers who don't mind looking after a small crew. Duties generally include managing spare parts and consumables levels, complete and submit daily and monthly reports and submit timesheets for pays, while still drilling and interfacing with the client as the company representative.
