Ever wondered what it would be like to be a Data Analyst working in the retail petroleum Industry?

Perhaps not, but by registering your interest and sending your CV to
jobs@fairbanks.co.uk
before 5.00pm on 24thMarch 2014, we can invite many of you to our recruitment and assessment day on 7th April where you will be able to find out if this is a career for you.
Based in West Lancashire, Fairbanks is a shining example of how an entrepreneurial small enterprise has created an outstanding business model with exceptional levels of growth.

Fairbanks is now providing its innovative and niche loss investigation services to an impressive list of international blue chip clients in over 30 countries.
As you can imagine, petroleum loss control is very high on our clients’ agenda so it is essential that we pinpoint and resolve all forms of loss very quickly and this includes leaks below ground causing pollution of soil and groundwater; we really are doing our bit to save our precious planet.

We are looking for great all-rounders, from any discipline. You will be capable of delivering excellent customer service, be highly numerate and IT literate, have a passion for problem solving and the confidence to take responsibility for investigations whilst liaising with petrol station owners as well as major oil company executives.
Don’t worry, if you know little about what we do or the petroleum industry, you will be given comprehensive training on our particularly smart in-house statistical analysis systems and then placed within a friendly and supportive team where you will become a significant contributor to Fairbanks’ success story.
What’s in it for you?
Well, you would be part of a dynamic company that is already realising its big plans for global expansion and offering the kind of job security that comes with a successful business. We can offer excellent career opportunities, for those candidates with the right drive, motivation and talent for business management. There may also be opportunities to travel to support our international activities, so being fluent in a foreign language may well be an advantage. You will join a workforce of over 170 permanent staff and start on a salary of £17,000 with a flexible holiday scheme and other benefits.

So if you’re up for the challenge then we’d love to meet you.
Please email your CV and a cover letter to
