Electrical Apprentice · Hexham, NSW
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.
