Townsville, Queensland, Australia Ruswin Group Full time $40,000 - $80,000 per year

RUSWIN is a leading Regional Queensland provider of Electronic Security Systems and Locksmith Services, proudly serving our community for over 50 years. We're now inviting motivated applicants to join our Townsville team as an Electronic Security Apprentice starting in 2026.

About the Job:

As an apprentice, you'll get hands-on experience installing and maintaining CCTV, alarms, access control, surveillance systems, data cabling and data networks - the technology that keeps people and places safe.

This four-year apprenticeship combines paid, on-the-job training with TAFE Queensland study, so you can earn while you learn. You'll work alongside experienced technicians, gain industry certifications, and take on varied jobs across different sites (with some travel and occasional after-hours work).

We welcome school leavers and adult apprentices who are keen to build a rewarding career in a high-tech, fast-growing industry.

If you're ready to get hands-on, ready to learn, and start a career that's anything but ordinary - we'd love to hear from you

  • Career progression – gain industry certifications
