Lower Hutt, New Zealand Ventia Full time

**WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU**
- Get a great career underway whilst training towards a trade qualification
- Earn while you learn
- Hands-on job where no 2 days are the same

We invite hardworking, well-rounded, and motivated individuals to start a career within the Transmission Lines industry by joining our team in Wellington as a Trainee Linesperson.

**ABOUT US**
Ventia is one of the largest electrical services contractor in New Zealand and a leading provider of integrated asset management, operations and maintenance services to the power, transmission and distribution industries.
You will be part of a strong and stable team and have the opportunity to work on the Transpower network. We’ve got a great presence within the New Zealand electrical services industry and also have opportunities within the wider Ventia business.

**ABOUT THE ROLE**
This is an exciting opportunity to gain skills and experiences in the Transmission/Power Industry enabling the trainee to become a registered EWRB Transmission Line Mechanic.

On this Training Programme, you'll get the training, portable skills and career opportunities that will set you up for life

On one hand you're gaining a recognised trade qualification as part of a leading global business, where you'll benefit from first-class mentoring, great support, and exposure to a wide range of disciplines. You'll also be earning from the first day you join us.

**ABOUT YOU**

A typical day will likely be spent out on the field and will also take you to remote areas in New Zealand that you otherwise might not have the opportunity to visit

Not only are you going to be able to work towards getting a qualification, but you will have the opportunity to gain practical skills you can use in your day to day life.

You will need to be prepared to travel away from home for work; be practical with manual tasks and hand tools; and have a valid driver’s licence. A minimum of NCEA Level 1 is preferred but not essential

If you have a good eye for detail, are keen to learn and commit to a training programme, and enjoy working within a team environment, then this is the perfect role for you

**HOW TO APPLY**

**_
ONLY NEW ZEALAND RESIDENTS AND CITIZENS WILL BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS ROLE._**

**APPLY NOW**

**DIVERSITY**
Ventia is enriched by the diverse experiences, talents and cultures that our people bring to the organisation, while celebrating and respecting the communities we operate in.
