Recruitment
Our Industry:
Highly challenging & highly rewarding
As marine civil engineering specialists, ABCO naturally works in challenging locations and in a high risk work environment. Across each project, multi-skilled and professional personnel are employed from various backgrounds to help deliver the work.
Part of our challenge is that we operate in-shore and near-shore operations, usually in a tidal range, so each day presents new challenges and risk. As a result, Health & Safety and thorough training is a priority in our industry.
Although we are a marine civil engineering company, we are governed by HSE statutory requirements for our operations, while we also have to get our vessels and marine material transfers reviewed by marine and insurance organisations.
Our personnel and their work ethic is critical to the delivery of our projects. As a result, we invest heavily in the training of our personnel to ensure that they have the required preparation for all work processes for both marine and shore-based operations.
