1ST-4TH YEAR APPRENTICESHIPS FOR NEWCASTLE & MAITLAND

Most apprenticeships go something like this; carry panels, fetch tools, sweep and repeat. We think that’s a terrible way to learn the trade.

The Elite Power Group team are on the hunt for enthusiastic apprentices, installers, and tradesmen/women that want to build a real career in renewables and electrical.

If you’re looking for something fresh, fun, and flexible, we’d love to hear from you. Join a Thornton-based team that values, integrity, quality over quantity, and doing it right the first time.
