On joining E-zec, you will have two weeks of paid training that will cover a range of courses like safeguarding, infection control, health and safety, manual handling and many more.
Our aim is to equip you with all the skills and training you need to become a fully competent ACA, so if you are looking to grow your career within an organisation who really care, we would love to hear from you
