Certification Europe Auditor Profile
Certification Europe is an accredited certification body headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, with offices across Europe. The firm specializes in ISO management system certifications, including ISO 27001, ISO 9001, and ISO 22301, serving organizations across the UK, Ireland, and continental Europe.
What Certification Europe Does Well
Accredited certification body status means Certification Europe issues ISO certifications directly, rather than acting as a consultant. Their certifications carry the INAB and UKAS accreditation marks, which are recognized internationally.
European focus gives the firm strong understanding of EU regulatory requirements, including GDPR compliance considerations that often intersect with ISO 27001 implementations. Organizations operating in the European market benefit from working with a certification body that understands the local regulatory landscape.
Multi-standard capability allows organizations to pursue multiple ISO certifications through a single body, with integrated audit approaches that reduce duplication and cost.
