Petrofac celebrates record number of Omani graduates

Petrofac is celebrating recruiting a record intake of Omani graduates as part of its 2015 intake.

Almost 30 young women and men will be kick-starting their careers with the company this month, an increase of nearly 40% on the previous year.

In the presence of His Highness Sayyid Kamil bin Fahd bin Mahmoud Al Said, Assistant Secretary General of the Deputy Prime Minister Office for Cabinet Affairs, Petrofac welcomed the new intake.

Country Manager Ray Richardson said: “Last year we had a great response from the universities and colleges with whom we work here in The Sultanate. Twenty-two students are now completing the first year of a tailored graduate training programme which we run through our Petrofac Academy. They are also excellent ambassadors which without doubt, complements the recruitment process. The tremendous take-up this year speaks for itself.

“Joining Petrofac straight from university or college can be a hugely rewarding experience. Our programmes provide the experience, training and development newly-qualified graduates need to accelerate their careers and develop their full potential in a forward looking organisation. They want to succeed and their performance reflects that motivation. They represent our future and I am very proud of every one of them.”

The Petrofac Academy is a purpose-built facility dedicated to the continuous professional development of all the company’s employees at every level and stage of their careers.
