Perth, Western Australia Elcore Electrics Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year
FIFO Dewatering Electrician (2:2 Roster – Wiluna) + Short-Term Goldfields Projects

Ongoing Contract | Career Progression Available | Super Paid on All Hours Worked

We're looking for a qualified electrician to join our expanding team working across WA's dewatering and pumping industry.

This ad covers two opportunities – both flexible, well-supported, and perfect for someone who's confident on-site, good with their hands, and keen to grow their skillset.


1. FIFO Dewatering Electrician – Wiluna (Ongoing Contract)
  • FIFO from Perth on a 2:2 roster
  • 12 hour days
  • Long-term role servicing and upgrading existing borefields
  • Daily maintenance and small-scale project work
  • New installations – terminating, testing and commissioning
  • Work alongside a back-to-back to keep site operations running smoothly
  • Modern work vehicle, tooling, and equipment provided
  • Excellent site culture and work-life balance
  • Clean, interesting site (not your typical dusty iron ore job)
  • Great opportunity to build knowledge in instrumentation and telemetry systems, with hands-on exposure and support from experienced team members
  • Superannuation paid on all hours worked

+ Career development available

We're happy to invest in the right person – with opportunities to grow into supervisory roles if you're driven and committed.


2. Short-Term Dewatering Projects – Goldfields (Ad-Hoc Work)

We also take on smaller dewatering installations across the Goldfields region, including:

  • Pumping stations
  • Bore installs
  • Pontoon pump installs and maintenance
  • Instrumentation and telemetry upgrades for pump and bore monitoring

These projects typically run from 2 days to 2 weeks, with opportunities to jump on board depending on availability and location.

Great for electricians looking to:

  • Fill gaps between other gigs
  • Stay active during time off
  • Gain exposure to varied industrial installations
  • Pick up Perth-based work during off weeks (pump installs, industrial maintenance, cable works, etc.)

Who We're Looking For
  • WA Electrical Workers Licence
  • Australian Driver's Licence (Manual)
  • White Card
  • Valid Police Clearance (within 6 months)
  • LVR/CPR (preferred)
  • First Aid (preferred)
  • Able to pass pre-employment medical & drug screen
  • Experience with pump systems, borefields, or similar
  • Confident with terminations, fault-finding, testing and commissioning
  • Self-motivated, reliable, and easy to work with
  • Instrumentation and telemetry experience a bonus (or keen to learn and develop skills in this area)
