About Acteon
Acteon specialises in supplying the Oil and Gas industry with technology linking the seabed with the surface. The Norwich Headquartered Company’s 19 subsidiaries operate in most of the world’s major oil and gas sites, providing services which span the production cycle from exploration to decommissioning. Backed by energy industry investor First Reserve, they have been featured in a number of Sunday Times ‘Fast Track’ league tables in recent years and revenues are now approaching £400m.
To support the continued growth of the business Acteon has a programme to develop its future leaders called ‘PACER’.
About PACER
Acteon has developed a structured, group-wide approach towards identifying and developing high calibre personnel with an aptitude for business improvement and management.
Talented individuals from within and outside the group are selected to take part in an intensive learning and development programme whilst continuing to contribute to the day-to-day performance of various Acteon subsidiaries. This provides a clear route for future senior roles for the strongest performers.
