Who we are 

With a multi-national workforce close to 6000 personnel, DOF Group ASA is an international group of companies which owns and operates a fleet of modern offshore/subsea vessels, and engineering capacity to service both the offshore and subsea market. With over 40 years in the offshore business, the group has a strong position in terms of experience, innovation, product range, technology and capacity. 

DOF's core businesses are vessel ownership, vessel management, project management, engineering, vessel operations, survey, remote intervention and diving operations primarily for the oil and gas sector.

Our office locations are Bergen, Haugesund, Storebø, and Oslo. We are moving into new office facilities and strengthening our structural engineering team in Haugesund, which makes this the preferred location for the role; however, for the right candidate, the role can also be based at one of our other offices.

Is this the perfect role for you, but you don't meet every single requirement? Our culture of innovation is built on valuing the right person for the role over a perfect alignment with a job description. Not least because research tell us women and minorities are unlikely to apply if they aren't able to match all the role requirements listed. Building a diverse, inclusive, and positive workplace is important to DOF, so we say, apply for the role - it's the best way to find the right person for this or other roles and that could be you.
