An Aberdeen training and consultancy firm has won half a million pounds of work with oil major BP.
ITB Competence Assurance said that it would provide assessor, verifier and coaching training for the operator in the North Sea, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey as part of the deal.
The company said it was also close to agreeing a string of other deals, which could double the size of the organisation over the next two years.
ITB has already enjoyed strong growth over three years; turnover in 2010 was less than £240,000, but is on track to come in at £1million for 2013.
The business – based in Thistle Place, where it has four training rooms – has also increased its workforce to 10, from five previously.
