An extraordinary year for Fairbanks
Fairbanks was recently crowned Business of the Year at an awards ceremony organised by the Lancashire Chamber of Commerce.
“This caps an extraordinary year – with a global contract from Shell leading to the creation of over 85 new jobs, doubling the size of the organisation in a short period of time,” said managing director, Bob Conlin. “We’re thrilled to have been recognised with this award.”
Fairbanks has also recently achieved ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certification, following the development and implementation of a comprehensive occupational health, safety and environmental management system. The company’s commitment to recruitment, quality, training and development has also helped them to achieve a Best Companies Accreditation and the Gold award from Investors in People.
“We’re acutely aware of the challenging trading conditions facing our industry sector, for us as a service provider as well as for our customers. Thanks to the hard work, talent and commitment of our people we’ve been able to not only grow the business significantly but also give a career start to over 100 graduates in the last 18 months.”
