What's the opportunity?

Are you an experienced Electrician looking to take the next step in your career?

Entec's instrumentation and electrical business is growing once again! Our workload continues to grow and as a result, we are looking for motivated and skilled Domestic/Commercial Electricians who are ready to expand their capabilities and transition into industrial electrical work.

If you've built a solid foundation in domestic/commercial construction, installations, maintenance, or project delivery and are looking for a new challenge, we'd like to hear from you.

At Entec, we're prepared to invest in the right person by providing training, mentoring, and exposure to industrial systems and projects. This is an excellent opportunity to broaden your skillset and build a long-term career in the industrial sector.

A little bit about us
Entec is envied for the calibre of its staff and the consistently high quality of the products, projects, and services that we deliver to our customers. We operate across mechanical, instrumentation, electrical, and gas detection disciplines and are proud of our reputation as a great supplier and a great employer.
Entec is privately owned and well managed. While we've grown significantly over the years, we've worked hard to retain the culture and feel of a family business while offering the security, opportunities, and capability of a larger organisation.

Entec currently employs around 130 people working from locations in Auckland, Taupo, and New Plymouth, while supporting projects nationwide.

The role
This position is based out of our New Plymouth branch, with opportunities to work on exciting projects throughout both the North and South Islands.
As part of our growing industrial team, you will work alongside experienced industrial electricians, instrumentation technicians, and project leaders on a wide variety of industrial construction, installation, maintenance, and shutdown projects.
Depending on your experience, we will provide training and mentoring in areas such as:
• Industrial electrical installations
• Motor control and MCCs
• Variable speed drives (VSDs)
• Industrial fault finding
• Hazardous areas
• Instrumentation systems
• Industrial plant maintenance
• Process and manufacturing facilities
You will need to demonstrate excellent workmanship, productivity, attention to detail, and a strong commitment to safe working practices. You will also need the initiative to work independently while contributing positively as part of a team.

As Entec operates a significant apprentice programme, a willingness to support, coach, and mentor apprentices is expected.

What we're looking for
To be considered for this role, you will need:
• Working rights in New Zealand
• A recognised electrical trade qualification
• A current EWRB practising licence
• Strong domestic/commercial electrical construction and installation experience
• The ability to read and interpret electrical drawings and technical documentation
• Strong problem-solving abilities
• Excellent attention to detail
• Effective communication skills
• A commitment to Health, Safety, and Quality
• A positive attitude and willingness to learn industrial systems and processes
• The ability to work away from home when required

Previous experience in industrial environments, hazardous areas, instrumentation, automation, or project leadership would be advantageous but is not essential.

What's in it for you?
• Competitive hourly rate ($40-$50 per hour depending on experience and qualifications)
• Overtime opportunities
• Penal rates and additional allowances
• Ongoing training and professional development
• Exposure to a wide range of industrial projects and technologies
• A clear pathway into industrial electrical work
• Long-term career opportunities within a growing business
The standard work week is 40 hours, with opportunities for overtime. As much of our project work is located outside the Taranaki region, the successful applicant will need to be willing to travel and work away from home when required.
