Post an energy job

How advertising works

1. Register as an employer. Create your account on the employer registration page. Specialist recruitment agencies register in the same way.
2. Complete your company profile. Add a short description of your organisation, the sectors you work in and where you operate. Candidates often read this before they apply, so a clear profile helps.
3. Submit your advert. Enter the job title, location, salary or day rate, employment type (permanent, contract or temporary), whether the role is on-site, hybrid or remote, and a closing date if you have one.
4. We check it. Our team reviews every advert before it is published. If something needs changing, we tell you what and why.
5. Your advert goes live for 30 days. It appears in job search results until the 30 days end or your closing date passes.
6. Applications arrive in your dashboard and by email. You can review each candidate's details in one place, and you get an email when a new application comes in.

What makes a good energy job advert

Candidates filter by salary, location, sector, employment type and working pattern. Adverts that answer those questions up front get more relevant applications and fewer wasted ones.

Show the salary or day rate

Energy candidates compare packages carefully, especially for contract and rotational work. Give a salary range or day rate, and mention overtime, allowances, travel or rotation terms where they apply. Adverts without pay information are easy to skip.

Be precise about location and working pattern

Name the site, port, depot or office, not just the region. Say whether the role is on-site, hybrid or remote, and give the rotation or shift pattern for offshore, site-based or standby work.

List the certificates you need

Separate essential from desirable. If the role needs GWO Basic Safety Training, OPITO offshore survival training, an offshore medical, CompEx, an HV authorisation, security clearance or a driving licence, say so clearly. If you will fund missing training for the right person, say that too, because it widens your pool.

Describe the work, not just the company

Explain what a normal week involves: the plant, equipment or systems, the team size, who the role reports to and how much travel is expected. Specific detail helps experienced people judge whether the job fits.

Searching the candidate database

Advertising brings applications to you. If you also want to approach people directly, approved employers can add candidate database access. Only candidates who have chosen to be visible to verified employers appear, and every CV download is logged. See how candidate search works before you order.

Founding employer places

While the board launches, a small number of selected employers and agencies can advertise free using complimentary job credits. Places are by application or invitation. Find out what is involved and how to apply on our founding employers page.

Packages and ordering

You can buy a single standard or featured advert, a bundle of five job credits, or monthly candidate database access. For now, you choose a package, we confirm your order and send an invoice, and the credits are added to your dashboard. Online card payment is coming later. Compare advertising packages and prices.
