Zodiac Training
Response to redundancy programme in the North East
At Zodiac we offer a Response to Redundancy programme for people recently made redundant and also for anyone actively seeking employment.
We run an initial 9 hours programme of employability skills based around individuals needs and time scales then can look deeper into any courses you may require to aid your employment such as Fork Lift Truck training and the use of our matching team to help you find work.
We are based in Ashington in a new office at the new industrial estate on Esther Court ten minutes from the main shopping street, plus other offices throughout the North East.
