Leasehand - New to Industry

Kickstart your career in Oil & Gas with Harness Energy 

Harness Training Pty Ltd, in partnership with Harness Energy Pty Ltd, Australia's leading specialist Labour Hire provider, is inviting applications for our Rig Ready Program, a fully funded training pathway designed to get you job-ready for Australia's onshore oil and gas industry. This is not a direct job application. This is your first step into the industry.  

Why the Rig Ready Program 
The Rig Ready Program delivers over $3,600 worth of nationally recognised training and industry tickets at absolutely no cost to you. Designed specifically for candidates new to oil and gas, it equips you with the minimum qualifications most tier-one operators require before they'll put you on site. 
  
We don't just hand you a certificate, we get you site-ready, safety-ready, and set up for long-term work in one of Australia's most in-demand industries. 
  
What's Included (At No Cost to You)

• Certificate II in Oil & Gas Drilling (Onshore) & Well Servicing 
• First Aid / CPR 
• Confined Space 
• Working at Heights 
• Fire & Emergency Response 
• Breathing Apparatus 

What Happens After Training? 
Graduates of the Rig Ready Program may be invited by Harness Energy Pty Ltd to apply for available Leasehand positions across QLD, WA, NT & SA. Such roles typically include even-time rosters (2/2 or 3/3, FIFO/DIDO) with tier-one operators.
