  • Great exposure to indutrial electrical work
  • Attractive hourly rate

Connect People Pty Ltd is a leading labour hire company with a strong focus on providing skilled tradespeople across various industries, including construction, engineering, and utilities.
We are excited to be recruiting for one of our partners, an Australian-owned company specialising in Contracting and Construction Services in Water, Sewerage & Drainage Infrastructure for over 30 years.

About the Role: 
We are currently seeking experienced, enthusiastic and self-motivated Industrial Electrical Trade Assistants.

As an Industrial Electrical Trade Assistant, you will play a key role in supporting the electrical trades person in various aspects of these critical infrastructure projects.
This role offers the opportunity to work on complex, large-scale industrial assembly and installations of switchboards that are essential to the functioning of water and sewage systems in and around greater Melbourne.

This role offers the opportunity to work on complex, large-scale industrial installations that are essential to the functioning of water and sewage systems in Victoria. Specifically, your key duties will involve:

Switchboard and Motor Control Wiring:

  • Assisting in the assembly and wiring of industrial switchboards used in pump stations and water treatment plants.
  • You will help install and connect motor control wiring, ensuring that motors, pumps, and other electrical systems are properly integrated into the infrastructure. This includes working with a range of electrical components like circuit breakers, transformers, contactors, and relays.

Installation of Hardware and Electrical Systems:

  • On-site work will include helping install various hardware such as sensors, actuators, control panels, and wiring systems. You'll also assist with the installation of monitoring equipment and instrumentation that ensures the seamless operation of these facilities.
  • Your work will also involve installing cable trays, ducts, and conduits to protect electrical cabling. This includes measuring, cutting, and assembling components, as well as ensuring that the installed systems meet regulatory and safety standards.

Control System Assembly:

  • You'll assist in the assembly of complex control systems, which include programmable logic controllers (PLCs), input/output (I/O) devices, control relays, and indicators. These systems are used to automate the operation of water and sewerage facilities, ensuring that they run efficiently and safely.

Support in Commissioning and Testing:

  • Once systems are installed, you will support the commissioning phase, which involves testing and calibrating equipment to ensure everything is functioning as designed. You'll assist with troubleshooting electrical faults and helping rectify any issues that arise during installation or operation.

Site-Specific Tasks:

  • Depending on the needs of the project, you may also be involved in tasks such as trenching for laying electrical conduits, mounting equipment, and assisting with site safety preparations, such as risk assessments, and adhering to Occupational Health & Safety (OH&S) standards
  • Through your work, you will gain a hands-on understanding of industrial electrical systems, which are vital to the operations of water and wastewater treatment plants. This is a role that offers significant exposure to industrial construction and electrical engineering, providing a solid foundation for career growth in the water and construction industries.

Skills and Experience Desired:

  • Electrical switchboard assembly fitting experience
  • Control and switchboard wiring experience
  • Knowledge of HV and Heavy Cabling
  • Internationally qualified electrical fitter/electrician (without Australian certification)
  • Proven experience with electrician's hand tools
  • Experience with cutting, grinding, drilling, masonry fixings, etc.
  • White Card (Construction Induction)
  • Victorian driver’s licence or equivalent

Your attention to detail, ability to meet deadlines, and strong adherence to safety and procedural standards will help you thrive in this role. A positive attitude, eagerness to learn, and team-oriented spirit are highly valued.

Connect People encourage individuals of all backgrounds, experiences, and identities to apply for our positions.
We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer and do not discriminate on the basis of race, colour, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, or veteran status.
