Vision

To provide exceptional, innovative solutions where we always exceed clients’ expectations. Our success is defined by our commercial viability, the safety and welfare of our people, our contribution to society and our positive impact on the environment.

A Career at OPEC

OPEC is always on the lookout for energetic, experienced people. We offer our clients workable solutions to, often, complex problems. We give our staff practical training, real-world challenges and a friendly, supportive workplace. OPEC understands and balances the needs of employees with the demands of their work.

Safety

Our services prevent or minimise real-world catastrophes. We respond anytime, anywhere – quickly and effectively.
However, we also commit ourselves to the safety of our staff and clients. Our slogan is ‘If you can’t do it safely, don’t do it until you can!’ Most business areas require weekly Toolbox Meetings. These meetings assist Management to review and refine our Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS).

Charitable Donations

Charitable donations are an important element of OPEC Systems. We continue to donate money to staff-selected charities. We aim to make a difference to the human as well as natural environment by offering them both a brighter, safer future.

I worked with Ben McDonnell from OPEC at one of our properties for compliance works. The communication and works that were delivered were as indicated in OPEC’s quote and in line with our expectations. I found Ben a pleasure to work with. When excavation took place there were a few unknowns, but Ben was good in communicating the findings to me daily and also resolving any issues along the way, offering several quality solutions and cost options.
