Have you always wanted to work outdoors and love hands-on, physical work? Would you like to work in a supportive team environment where you can contribute to your local community? An Apprenticeship or Traineeship with Essential Energy could be for you!

Through our Apprentice Program you can work towards gaining a Nationally recognised qualification, with a combination of on-the-job and classroom-based learning.
