About the Role

Are you a qualified electrician looking to step up into a leadership role with greater responsibility and better remuneration?

We are a growing electrical contracting business specialising exclusively in clean, efficient, medium-to-high-end residential new construction. We are seeking an experienced Electrical Supervisor to lead our team, oversee project setups, mentor apprentices and tradespeople, and ensure our high quality standards are consistently met.

This is a hands-on, off-desk leadership role focused on driving site efficiency, maintaining top-tier workmanship, and supporting our field team from slab to handover.

Key Responsibilities

1. Leadership, Upskilling & Quality Audits

• Oversee, mentor, and upskill a team of qualified electricians and apprentices.

• Provide hands-on guidance on consumer mains, slab conduits, cutouts, and specialised site layouts.

2. Job Setups & Site Efficiency (First & Second Fix)

• Coordinate site setups, ensuring all materials, joinery points, sub-boards, and submains are measured, ordered, and delivered on time.

• Assist tradespeople with floor/wall layouts, drilling, trimming, and ducting setup to maintain maximum productivity.

• Identify potential installation issues early and liaise directly between onsite trades, building supervisors, and our main office.

• Swiftly resolve site bottlenecks and organise any missing or client-supplied materials ASAP.

3. Commissioning, Testing & Handover

• Conduct Liven-Up Audits to verify site safety before energisation.

• Partner with tradespeople to test, energise, and issue Certificates of Compliance (CoC).

• Generate final completion punch-lists and execute thorough final handover audits to guarantee premium delivery.

What We Are Looking For

• Licensing: Current Australian Unrestricted Electrical Licence & Valid Driver’s Licence.

• Experience: 5 to 10+ years of solid experience in residential new builds (medium-to-high-end residential experience is highly regarded).

• Skills: Outstanding fault-finding abilities, sharp attention to detail, and exceptional organisational skills.

• Communication: Ability to represent the company professionally when speaking with site managers, builders, and clients.

• Mindset: A proactive problem-solver who takes pride in quality workmanship and enjoys training and developing others.

What We Offer

• Top-Tier Remuneration: Highly competitive pay package based on your experience.

• Company Vehicle & Tools: Vehicle, quality equipment, and full gear provided.

• Work-Life Balance: Stable, long-term employment with flexible hours to support life outside of work. 4 day 38 hour working week on offer.

• Great Culture: A supportive, safety-conscious team environment with opportunities for further career progression.
