The Opportunity

Already part-way through your electrical apprenticeship and ready to build confidence on larger, more technical sites?

CCGT is looking for a 3rd or 4th Year Apprentice Electrician to join a large-scale, professional Host Employer working across the Central Coast.

You’ll continue developing your electrical skills in a structured workplace that maintains critical infrastructure across a variety of sites. This is a strong opportunity to gain more hands‑on experience in commercial‑scale facilities, live work environments and safety‑focused electrical work.

You will be employed by Central Coast Group Training (CCGT) and placed with the Host Employer for your day‑to‑day work.

• Troubleshoot electrical systems in live environments

• Apply WHS practices and electrical safety procedures

• Work across commercial‑scale infrastructure

• Follow site procedures, safety requirements and compliance standards

• Continue your off‑the‑job training through TAFE NSW Wyong

As your skills grow, you’ll continue taking on more responsibility and sharpening your technical knowledge.

You’ll be learning in a structured electrical environment with:

• Exposure to commercial‑scale facilities and critical infrastructure

• Experienced electricians who can help you keep developing

• A strong focus on safety, compliance and technical standards

• Real experience with maintenance, inspections, upgrades and preventative works

• Professional site systems and workplace procedures

• Supportive supervision and regular CCGT check‑ins

• A clear pathway to keep building your electrical career

You’ll also receive paid full‑time employment, on‑the‑job training and ongoing support from CCGT throughout your apprenticeship.
