Apprentice possibilities start with us.

Join this apprenticeship stream and build a specialist trade career maintaining our critical high voltage substations and equipment across Queensland.

This is a hands-on, field-based apprenticeship with extensive on-the-job learning, industry-leading supervision, and nationally recognised qualifications.

On completion of the four-year program, you’ll achieve a Certificate III in Electrotechnology Electrician (UEE30820) and qualify for an unrestricted electrical licence.

You’ll be on a 9-day roster and travel across Queensland with your team, earning while you learn in a supportive, safety-first environment.

Why choose a Substation Electrical Trade Apprenticeship?

Based in Townsville, you’ll work as part of a skilled crew delivering the installation and maintenance of Powerlink’s primary high‑voltage plant and equipment across substations throughout Queensland.

Powerlink's electrical trades people help keep Queensland’s high‑voltage transmission network operating safely and reliably. As an apprentice, you’ll contribute to the infrastructure that powers communities and supports Queensland’s energy future.

A competitive salary: Substations - Electrical Trade Apprenticeships starting from $70,736 (for year 12 school leavers and under 21 years of age) and $92,082 (over 21 years of age), plus 14.75% superannuation
Annual incremental salary increases, together with a range of allowances and financial benefits, including living away from home and other entitlements
Working hands-on outdoors in live HV substations under strong safety systems and supervision
Travelling to regional and remote sites as needed, including frequent time away from home and some overtime
Working at heights (up to 15 metres) when required
Completing nationally accredited training at TAFE and study to meet apprenticeship timeframes. All tuition costs are covered by us.

The Program.

Over a structured four-year apprenticeship, you’ll build hands-on capability in a high-voltage environment - installing, testing, maintaining, and repairing electrical systems, plant, and equipment.

You’ll work alongside experienced supervisors on Powerlink’s primary plant, combining on‑the‑job learning with TAFE training to complete your Certificate III on time.

Most of your time will be spent in the field at Powerlink substations, working hands-on with experienced crews across Queensland.

This apprenticeship is active, varied and rewarding, and is well suited to people who enjoy practical work, teamwork and a safety focused environment where no two days are the same. You’ll also complete internal and external training including but not limited to:

First aid certificate and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) certificate
High risk work licences (including elevated work platform, rigging and dogging, and forklift)
Defensive driving
Technical training

What you'll need by January 2027:
A manual licence and your own vehicle to travel to site when required
Live within 50 km of your nominated point of hire
For school leavers, a pass in Year 12 English and Maths
For over 21, no educational pre-requisites required
