Electrician looking for work in Australia.
 

Hello,

I am an electrician from wales (uk) looking for work but currently I don't have an electrical license, I am in Brisbane at the moment on a WHV but I am willing to travel to wherever I can find work. I have all the uk qualifications Upto design and verification. I was hoping to find work out here and then get sponsored and maybe get a license that way? Can anyone help with what's best for me to do?

Thanks

Hi,

When I was in Adelaide in April some of the Irish guys on the course said there is always lots of work in NT and Darwin. Not sure if it's still the case but might be worth a bash, I think some of them were working as electricians under supervision and were getting the licence in SA to help with sponsorship
