What’s your favourite thing about working at ProTec?

The opportunity to learn and grow, not only from the amazing team that feels like a family and by far the best bosses I ever had, but also from the incredible people with unique life’s that come from all over the world to train with us.

I can’t choose one so I’ll go with three.
