Why Marine First
Osbrooks launched in marine engineering deliberately. It is the sector we know best — eight years of specialisation and 200+ contractors deployed — and it is the hardest test of any screening engine: certification-dense, safety-critical, and brutally intolerant of a welder who can’t actually weld to the code on his card. If a qualification process survives marine, it survives anything. Ours does, and we publish the numbers to prove it.
