Expressions of Interest – Transgrid's 2026 Pre-Apprentice Program for Women

Are you curious about a career in the high-voltage electrical industry? Transgrid's award-winning Pre-Apprentice Program for Women is back in 2026

This 5-week program is designed to give you a real taste of life as a Transmission Line Worker or Substation Electrician. You'll train alongside highly skilled technicians, gain hands-on experience with live work crews, and take part in nationally recognised training that provides credits towards future electrical supply industry (ESI) qualifications.

What's included?

  • All training, travel, PPE and accommodation expenses covered by Transgrid.
  • Interactive, practical learning experiences – from hand skills and wiring tasks, to substation and power station tours.
  • Exposure to real-world electrical work environments at our depots across NSW and ACT.
  • Supportive mentors and trainers to guide you every step of the way.

This is your chance to explore the industry before committing to a full apprenticeship – and at the end of the program, a select number of dedicated individuals will be invited to apply for an ongoing apprenticeship with Transgrid.

Program Locations:

  • Wagga
  • Yass
  • Orange
  • Newcastle
  • Tamworth
  • Wallgrove

Who we're looking for

To be considered for the program, you should have:

  • A genuine interest in the electrical supply industry.
  • The ability to travel and stay away from home during work experience activities.
  • Transport to your local depot for in-person training and activities.
  • Completion (or near completion) of Year 10 studies.
  • Commitment to attend and complete the 5-week program schedule.

By submitting an Expression of Interest (EOI), you'll help us identify which locations attract the most interest and ensure you are the first to be notified when formal applications open in early 2026.

Take the first step towards an exciting, hands-on career in the high-voltage industry with Transgrid. Submit your Expression of Interest now and be the first to hear when applications open in 2026

For any enquiries relating to this role, please contact - resumes will not be accepted by email.

Transgrid is committed to Health and Safety, the Environment, Equal Employment Opportunity, Diversity and Ethical Practices. All applicants are expected to demonstrate an understanding of and commitment to these areas.
