This isn't just another electrical job.
We want Gillard Electrical to be a place where great tradespeople can build a long-term career.

Whether your goal is to become one of our senior electricians, develop into a leading hand or supervisor, improve your customer and sales skills, or eventually move into a management position, we want to help you progress.
If you perform, take ownership and want more responsibility, there will be opportunities for you.

A culture built around having a life outside work
We’re ambitious about growing the company, but we don't believe that should come at the expense of our team's lifestyle.

We have a young, motivated and down-to-earth team that works hard during the day and values their time outside of work.

Overtime is rare and never compulsory.

We want our team to have time for their families, mates, sport, hobbies, social life and everything else that matters outside of work.

We actively encourage our team to be involved in sporting clubs, community groups and social activities.
We also get the team together for a monthly social activity so we're building a great workplace — not just turning up, doing a job and going home.

What you'll be working on
There’s plenty of variety, including:

Commercial office fit-outs
Power and lighting installations
Data and communications
Emergency lighting
Desk management systems
Architectural and custom-built homes
High-end residential renovations
Residential maintenance and repairs
Real estate maintenance
Private residential electrical work
You'll get exposure to a broad range of electrical work rather than being stuck doing the same thing every day.

What we're looking for
You'll ideally be:

A qualified Victorian A-Grade Electrician or strong 4th-year apprentice
Someone who takes pride in their workmanship
Reliable and self-motivated
A good communicator
Comfortable dealing directly with customers
Organised with good time-management skills
Able to problem-solve and think for yourself
Someone who enjoys being part of a team
Looking for more than simply collecting a pay cheque

You'll also need:
Current driver's licence
White Card
Relevant Victorian electrical licences/qualifications
Why Gillard Electrical?
We pride ourselves on delivering exceptional workmanship, communication and customer service.
But just as importantly, we want to build one of the best electrical companies in Melbourne to work for.

That means:
Great money.
Great people.
Quality work.
Opportunities to progress.
And enough time outside of work to actually enjoy what you're earning.
