Normec is a fast-growing, international enterprise in the TICC (Test, Inspection, & Certification) sector. We have offices throughout Europe and the UK and are looking for further expansion across the globe. With our 7,000 employees, we enable our customers to innovate safely, quickly, and cost-efficiently. The acquire-to-grow nature of our company provides challenges from a digitalization point of view as we continue to expand through mergers and acquisitions.
