Certificate III in Electrotechnology (apprenticeship)

Job description

In this job you'd work in a workshop in Hexham, NSW, building electrical equipment like switchboards and wiring switch rooms, learning from qualified tradespeople. It's a full-time apprenticeship, Monday to Friday, 38 hours a week, and you'd study towards a Certificate III in Electrotechnology while you work. You'll need a driver's licence and to have finished at least Year 10 (Year 12 preferred) with pass marks in Maths and English. The role also means being willing to travel to other project sites, not just the Hexham workshop.

The honest preview

The good

• You'll come out of this with a nationally recognised Certificate III in Electrotechnology.
• There's a clear path to keep building your career once the apprenticeship is done.

What surprises people

• You won't just be stuck in one workshop — you'll need to be willing to travel to other sites and projects too.

Industry averages for a qualified Electrician General, across all employers — not this employer’s offer, and after you finish the apprenticeship, not during.
