Solar Plumbers Heading to NSW in 2010 in need of work
Are you a plumber heading to NSW and going to be looking for work PM me.
In Short I'm setting up a large plumbing company covering most of NSW. Main work will involve the installation of Solar Systems & general plumbing. You will need to go on to roofs, use ladders and scaffolding, silver solder etc, don't worry nothing to tricky, most installs are 1/2 - 3/4 of a day (solar) Not to interested in CV's and references as they can all be faked, basic short list of skills is fine, we carry out our own in house practical test. nothing tricky all basic stuff. If you don't have an Australian plumbing licence we can assist in helping with the conversion of your uk qualifications to Australian. We would place you with a licenced plumber until you get your own licence. If your a good tidy plumber but Solar is a bit of a grey area to you we can train you, but clearly we would expect you had very good knowledge of hot water cylinders etc. What we are not looking for is unskilled people or apprentices. Why am I bothering to offer on here, just trying to help out some people, as I know how hard it can be getting started in a new country etc. any questions PM me or ask on here James |

Do you have a Roof Plumbing Licence, for the solar installations? James |
Re: Solar Plumbers Heading to NSW in 2010 in need of work
Thanks for your reply James, no unfortunately I do not hold a roof plumbers licence, I am still interested in doing solar installations, and looking for a way in the industry. I did a couple of installations back in the uk but i have limited experience, however, i am still willing to learn further if that is any help.

Are you upgrading your licence any further? Roof Plumbing covers solar installations in NSW on roofs http://www.fairtrading.nsw.gov.au/Tr..._plumbing.html unless you upgrade your licence you're likely to only be employed as an apprentice etc. if doing solar. Because at least one person has to be licenced & the other person is normally the lad / go4 / apprentice etc. James |
Re: Solar Plumbers Heading to NSW in 2010 in need of work
Thanks to all the guys who got in contact and phoned up etc.
We now have our 12 installers for NSW and are no longer seeking anymore installers for NSW. We will be looking for installers in South Australia round about Aug 2010 - Dec 2010. As per the first post at the start of this thread, If your heading to South Australia let us know. James |
