Job description

Essential Network Solutions – Maitland NSW

Thinking about where your electrical licence could take you next? Essential Network Solutions PTY LTD is growing across the Hunter/Newcastle region, and we’re looking for licensed electricians to join our metering team.

It’s a specialised, in-demand part of the industry, and with full training provided, it’s a great move for sparkies who want consistent work that lets them start and finish at home every day. Your day is spent at the meter board, no more crawling through roof spaces, under floors or in trenches.

No metering experience? No problem. We’ll give you all the training you need.

About Us

Essential Network Solutions (ENS) is an Australian, family-owned business providing specialised metering services to meter providers. We’ve built our reputation on extensive industry experience, tailored maintenance and installation programs, and a motivated compliance system. Above all, we’re committed to the safety of our team and our customers.

We’re growing, and we’re looking for full-time employees and sub-contractors to join our metering team in the Hunter/Newcastle region.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Single phase and three phase whole current meter and communications installations and exchanges, plus fault finding and rectification
• Embedded network meter and communications installations, plus fault finding and rectification
• We have consistent, ongoing work across the Upper and Lower Hunter as well as the Greater Newcastle region for the foreseeable future. If you’re elsewhere in the region and happy to travel, we’d still love to hear from you.

Why Work for Essential Network Solutions?

• Start and finish at home every day. No waiting around at a depot for jobs each day.
• Monthly team get-togethers. Lunch and a catch-up with the crew every month.
• Full training provided. We’ll teach you metering from the ground up.
• Steady, ongoing work. Plenty of work across the region, so you can plan your life with confidence.
• A young, supportive crew. Work alongside people who back each other and have a laugh along the way.
• Variety in your day. Get out on the road, meet different customers and solve different problems. It’s not the same four walls every day.
• A family-owned business. You’re a name, not a number, and your work is noticed.
• Room to grow. As we expand, so do the opportunities for people who want to step up.

What We’re Looking For

• A Current NSW Electrical License (Essential)
• Switchboard experience is a bonus, but a willingness to learn matters most
• Someone who takes pride in their work and enjoys looking after customers
• The ability to work independently and manage your own time to meet deadlines
• A strong commitment to safety and quality

ENS is an equal opportunity employer committed to a workplace that embraces and values diversity and inclusion.
