The offshore energy and subsea industries are evolving rapidly, driven by global demand for energy, expanding offshore wind projects, and technological innovations beneath the waves. As a result, offshore jobs are seeing a significant uptick in demand — and AS Recruitment is at the forefront of connecting skilled professionals with high-impact roles across the globe.

Why Offshore Jobs Are in High Demand

The offshore sector is no longer limited to traditional oil and gas. Offshore wind farms, decommissioning projects, subsea cabling, and underwater robotics have created new opportunities for engineers, ROV pilots, project managers, and technical specialists.

Key drivers of hiring growth include:

• Energy transition: A global push toward renewables is creating new offshore wind installations.

• Aging infrastructure: Older oil rigs and subsea systems require inspection, maintenance, and eventual decommissioning.

• Advanced technology: Increased use of remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and autonomous underwater systems means new skill sets are in demand.

Who’s Hiring — and Where?

We’re seeing consistent demand across the North Sea, Gulf of Mexico, West Africa, Southeast Asia, and the North Atlantic. Companies are looking for qualified personnel for short-term contracts, long-term projects, and even full-time offshore employment.

Roles in high demand include:

• ROV Pilot/Techs

• Subsea Engineers

• Client Reps

• Inspection Coordinators

• Project Managers

• NDT Technicians

• Surveyors (MBES, USBL, LBL)

What Offshore Employers Are Looking For

While each role is unique, there are common traits that employers value:

• Certifications: BOSIET/FOET, GWO, OGUK medicals, and other region-specific credentials.

• Experience: Hands-on work with ROVs, subsea systems, or offshore surveys.

• Flexibility: Willingness to travel and adapt to changing project schedules.

• Communication: Offshore work often involves multi-national teams and fast-moving operations — clear, concise communication is key.
