About the Role

Boltz Electrical is looking for a qualified Electrician to join its team in Dry Creek, South Australia. The company works across temporary power, events, domestic electrical services, commercial projects and electrical maintenance.

This isn’t a narrow workshop role. Your work can take you onto event sites, domestic properties and commercial projects, giving you exposure to different electrical systems and working environments. Boltz also supports major events and festivals across South Australia, so the role can involve fast-moving projects where safe installation and reliable power really matter.

The position is full-time and performed in person. The advertised pay is A$42–A$50 per hour, with overtime opportunities. Visa sponsorship is also listed as a benefit for the position, although applicants should confirm the specific sponsorship pathway and eligibility directly with the employer.

Primary Responsibilities

• Install, test, connect, commission, maintain and modify electrical systems.
• Set up temporary power systems and distribution equipment for events and projects.
• Install and connect electrical equipment, circuits, outlets, lighting and related systems.
• Identify electrical faults, troubleshoot problems and complete necessary repairs.
• Work with switchboards, distribution systems and temporary electrical infrastructure.
• Read drawings, site requirements and project specifications when completing electrical work.
• Support event builds, live site operations, pack-downs and other project activities.
• Carry out domestic and commercial electrical work during periods outside major event projects.
• Follow South Australian electrical requirements, workplace health and safety procedures and company standards.
• Communicate professionally with customers, contractors and other members of the Boltz team.

Qualifications

Boltz is looking for an experienced electrician with a strong understanding of electrical installation, testing, fault finding and maintenance. You should be comfortable working independently while also contributing effectively to a team.

The role requires current electrical worker registration in South Australia and a current driver’s licence. Applicants should also have a Construction White Card.

At least 2 years of experience after completing an apprenticeship is listed for the position. Experience with temporary power systems and event electrical work is highly regarded, but the role also covers domestic and commercial electrical projects.

Boltz is also looking for someone with good communication, practical problem-solving ability, attention to detail and a positive approach to site work.

Licences & Requirements

• Current electrical worker registration in South Australia.
• Minimum 2 years’ post-apprenticeship experience.
• Current driver’s licence.
• Construction White Card.
• Strong electrical installation and maintenance skills.
• Fault-finding and repair experience.
• Ability to work safely on different sites and adapt to changing project requirements.
• Good communication and teamwork skills.

Additional credentials can strengthen your application. Working at Heights certification, a forklift licence and a current police check are listed as highly regarded. Basic Microsoft Office skills are also useful.

Visa Sponsorship & Relocation

Visa sponsorship is advertised as a benefit for this electrician position. However, the available job information does not specify a particular visa subclass or guarantee sponsorship for every international applicant.

If you’re outside Australia, make your work-authorisation situation clear when applying. Ask the employer which sponsorship pathway is available for the position, whether they can sponsor an offshore applicant and what electrical registration requirements you must satisfy before starting work.

South Australian electrical registration is listed as an essential requirement, so overseas electricians should also check how their existing qualifications and licence can be recognised in South Australia before making relocation plans.

Who This Job Suits

This role is a strong fit for an electrician who already has practical post-apprenticeship experience and wants more variety in their work. It’s particularly relevant if you’ve worked with temporary power, event installations, switchboards, electrical maintenance or fault finding.

Your CV should clearly show your electrical qualification, current registration, years of experience, driver’s licence and the types of systems you’ve worked on. If you’ve worked on festivals, concerts, sporting events or temporary power installations, highlight those projects rather than burying them in a long list of duties.

International applicants should also clearly state their current location and work-authorisation status. If you need sponsorship, say so professionally and ask the employer to confirm whether the advertised sponsorship applies to your circumstances.

How to Apply

Boltz Electrical asks interested electricians to send a resume and cover letter explaining their relevant experience. The listed application email is gm@boltz.com.au.

Your cover letter should briefly explain your electrical background, post-apprenticeship experience, current registration, experience with temporary power or event work, and availability. If you’re seeking visa sponsorship, mention this clearly and ask the employer to confirm the available pathway.

Application email: gm@boltz.com.au

Important: Before sending documents or making relocation plans, confirm that the vacancy is still open, that you meet South Australian electrical registration requirements, and that the advertised visa sponsorship is available for your situation.
