Electrical Estimator & Industrial Electrician

Trade · Albury, Albury Area NSW, Australia · Full-Time · $50 - $55/hr

Experienced Electrical Estimators and Industrial Electricians, take note: an established electrical engineering and contracting business is expanding its Victoria team and is accepting applications now.

The work spans technically diverse jobs in commercial, industrial and infrastructure environments, so it suits people who are serious about moving their careers forward. Estimators will price and plan projects, while electricians will build, test, commission and maintain industrial electrical systems.

One word of caution: a genuine employer will never ask you to pay for a job offer, so treat any such request as a red flag.
