Westhill is an energy-services town: subsea and oilfield engineering offices and workshops around the Arnhall and Westhill business parks, with construction and housing work spreading around the edges. Supervisor-level training tends to matter more here than raw operator numbers, because the risk sits in yard traffic, deliveries and contractor machines coming and going. We run supervisor sessions in your own meeting room and walk your yard as part of the day, which makes the content stick better than a classroom ever does.
