ASTEC Group Ltd, provider of Engineering Consultancy, Managed Contractor Services and more recently permanent contracts to the UK’s energy industry.

ASTEC Group, formed in 1994 as a nuclear engineering consultancy business as ASTEC Services Ltd, and was then owned by its now Chairman Dr David Barraclough where its core business was Risk, Safety and Expert Witness. Our engineering consultancy took off on a rapid scale, gaining respect and more importantly, key contracts with the major nuclear industry leaders. News of ASTEC’s high calibre services were being passed around from contact to contact and so ASTEC’s reputation grew from strength to strength and is a recognised, respected consultancy in the nuclear sector.

In 2006 after the appointment of Andy Thompson then MD now CEO, ASTEC Services Ltd expanded into The Oil & Gas, Aerospace and Rail industry. ASTEC then formed a sister company ASTEC Oil and Gas Ltd to deal with the Oil and Gas operations in Aberdeen. Andy with a strong background in Oil & Gas and Rail utilised ASTEC’s strengths in Risk Management and Safety and developed a strong teams of expertise to take the Oil and Gas operations to Aberdeen the home of the Oil and Gas Industry in the UK.

In 2008 ASTEC expanded its portfolio by acquiring Energen Personnel Ltd who has added expertise from the Oil and Gas industry both in the UK and Globally in both temporary contracts and permanent recruitment. By using these added resources ASTEC now can operate more flexibly to provide a wider service to our clients.

ASTEC can offer flexible resources in a variety of ways, on time, materials or fixed price contract basis to suit our clients' needs.
