Apprenticeships at ECS

To make sure our customers enjoy a stellar experience from our team, we want our engineers to be the most skilled and knowledgeable around.

From sponsoring staff to achieve industry-recognised qualifications to running ‘buddy’ schemes and delivering manufacturer-specific training courses, we are continually enhancing our engineers’ skills in a range of ways. 

A Level 3 apprenticeship in Fire Emergency and Security Systems offers the best of both worlds. If you’re a practical individual who is looking for on-the-job training, this is the right pathway for you. You’ll get to enter the world of work right away – but you also work towards an industry-recognised qualification that will equip you for a long and successful career as a security and fire safety engineer.

We’ll pay your wages, and will provide you with your ECS uniforms and all the tools you need to complete your apprenticeship with Banham Academy. You will of course be provided with time off so you can attend your block release schedule (several weeks per year) and enough hours per week to reach your off-the-job learning targets. Arrangements can also be made to help you complete your Functional Skills certificates if required.

Andy, Sales Team since 2024

“Initially, I was intrigued by ECS’ regular social media posts. I saw that the team was looking for new surveyors and decided to give the role a shot. I’ve been warmly welcomed ever since, and it’s been fantastic working alongside such hard-working professionals. Each department here is rapidly expanding, which is exciting to see. I hope to play a role in the company’s continued growth and I’m looking forward to what the future holds.”

Dan Strong, Engineer since 2016

“I finished Sixth Form and had no idea what career path I wanted to pursue. I asked if there was a trainee opportunity at ECS and the directors allowed me to work with the installation department before moving to the projects team to develop my skills in this area. The quality of work achieved here is second to none, and we have a great team that really gets along. Having just started in a more technical role, I’m excited to increase my knowledge and eventually transition into management”

Luigi, Engineer since 2018

I’ve finally found a place that gives me the freedom to practice my knowledge and enhance my skills, and where I can be part of a team that really cares about its customers and each other. I love the fact we are such a dynamic group, both in the office and out in the field – and that we are always open to embracing new technology and expanding into different areas of business.
