• Assist with electrical installation, testing and commissioning of equipment
• Read and interpret electrical drawings, wiring diagrams and technical documentation
• Attend customer sites to troubleshoot faults and minimise equipment downtime
• Complete service records and ensure all work meets electrical safety and quality standards

What We’re Looking For:
• Current Queensland electrical licence
• Experience working with construction hoists, lifting equipment or electrical systems in a rigging environment
• Strong electrical fault-finding and troubleshooting skills, ideally involving motors, VSDs, PLCs or control systems
• Ability to read and interpret electrical drawings and wiring diagrams
• Current driver's licence and willingness to travel to sites across SEQ, including occasional regional travel
• Strong safety awareness, initiative and ability to work independently and collaboratively

Why Join Electrohire?
• Permanent, full-time role with long-term stability
• Varied role combining driving, deliveries and yard operations
• Ongoing training and opportunities to gain additional licences and tickets.
• Supportive, down-to-earth team environment
• Paid Birthday Leave and opportunity to purchase additional week of annual leave
