Job Description

Electrician | Industrial Career Opportunity

What's the opportunity?

Are you a registered 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, Taupō, and New Plymouth, while supporting projects nationwide.

The role

This position is based out of our Taupō branch, with opportunities to work on exciting projects and maintenance work, primarily across the Taupō region, as well as throughout the North and South Islands.

Based in the heart of the central North Island, Taupō offers an enviable lifestyle alongside a varied and rewarding role. Enjoy easy access to the lake, mountains, outdoor adventures and everything the region has to offer, while still being part of a business working on projects across New Zealand.

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/Full EWRB practising licence

Strong domestic, commercial or Industrial 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

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?

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.
