We work with fishing, processing, agriculture and distribution operators operating around Fraserburgh Harbour and South Harbour industrial estate — including teams at Fraserburgh Harbour, Lunar Freezing / processors, South Harbour Industrial Estate, and shape each managing mobile plant course around your equipment, shift patterns and risk profile.

On completion, successful candidates receive an accredited managing mobile plant certificate, recognised by auditors and procurement teams across Buchan, Aberdeenshire.
