About Set Point Electrical

Set Point Electrical is a Geelong-based industrial electrical contractor working across manufacturing, water treatment, food production, utilities and heavy industrial operations.

Most of our work is ongoing maintenance on plants we look after week in, week out, plus breakdowns, installations, controls and instrumentation. We're a small, growing team, supportive and committed to doing things properly.

What's In It For You?

This is where we stand out. At Set Point Electrical, you're not just a number, you're part of the team and part of the growth.

Real industrial variety. From VSDs, motors and switchboards to instrumentation, sensors, pumps and controls.

Training & development in instrumentation + automation. If you're keen to grow in this space, we'll support you with training, mentoring and hands-on exposure.

Local and travelling work. Based in Geelong with work across Victoria, projects working away and maintenance contracts locally.

A team that values you. Your ideas matter. You'll be trusted, supported, and not micromanaged.

High-quality tools & equipment. Fluke test gear, clean new vehicles, quality materials. We invest in doing things right.

Career progression as the business expands. Opportunities for leadership, project work and technical specialisation.

Stable, ongoing work. We work with long-term industrial clients who rely on us year-round.

Competitive pay based on experience. You'll be paid properly for the skills you bring and responsibilities you can take on.

About the Role

A full-time, on-site industrial role, mostly in Sunshine and Melbourne's west at the moment, with work around Geelong as well. You will work on installations, maintenance, breakdowns, small projects and instrumentation/controls support.

Once you know a site, you'll be running it day to day yourself, with backup a phone call away.

This is a role for someone who enjoys technical work, problem-solving and doing clean, professional industrial jobs.
