FIRCROFT has firm roots in the UK technical markets. The company was formed in 1970 to offer recruitment services to the UK North Sea oil and gas industry and many of these relationships are still going strong today.
The business has grown significantly since inception and now provides more than 3,200 contract professionals to clients engaged in a variety of specialist technical industries.
With the globalisation of key technical markets, Fircroft has undergone significant expansion to support its client’s operations worldwide. The company currently serves its clients and employees in 30 key international locations.
As a family owned and managed business, building and maintaining good working relationships is central to Fircroft’s core values.
The partnership approach and commitment to seeking unique and innovative solutions for clients and contractors has seen these relationships span all four decades of its business operations.
Fircroft is focused on continuous improvement and is proud of the awards and recognition received from clients and industry bodies for its commitment to safety, quality and innovation.
Due to the globalisation of the oil and gas industries, Fircroft recognises that in order to support its client’s requirements in the key engineering, construction, fabrication and development locations, it needs to maintain a level of flexibility in business.
To this end, it has established strategic joint venture partnerships and recruitment teaming arrangements in key development areas to further extend its global reach. This enables the company to not only support the local recruitment requirements of its client’s corporate entities, but supply contracted personnel throughout the whole project lifecycle from feasibility studies through engineering, construction, fabrication to operations and maintenance.
With a branch based locally in Billingham for the previous 12 years, Fircroft can offer Tees Valley companies a wealth of recruitment experience in a variety of industries.
