Experienced Electrician – Palmerston North

$40–$45/hr + Vehicle + Phone

If you're an experienced electrician who wants to work somewhere you actually enjoy turning up each day — with varied, challenging work and a tight-knit team — this could be the role for you.

We're Ace Electrics and we're not your standard electrical outfit. We work across all sectors, which means every day is different. We're the team people call when no one else can figure it out. From residential troubleshooting and appliance servicing to large commercial fit-outs — like the recently completed Popeye/Starbucks in Palmerston North — our work is anything but boring.

We back our people, reward excellence, and build a team culture where everyone supports each other. If you want ownership, variety, and room to grow, this job has your name on it.

The Role: Experienced Electrician

You'll have the autonomy to manage your own jobs and deliver top-quality electrical work across both domestic and commercial sites — think new builds, alterations, rewires, and shop or building fit-outs.

You'll lead your own jobs, be sharp on the tools, and be confident dealing with customers — because we pride ourselves on the relationships we build.

You'll also help develop our apprentices. They're sharp, motivated, and keen to learn — and we want them learning from the best.

What We're Looking For

You're a Registered Electrician with 6+ years' experience, confident across both domestic and commercial work. You don't need hand-holding — you take ownership, solve problems, and represent the brand well.

You'll be a great fit if you:

  • Enjoy varied, interesting work that requires problem-solving

  • Communicate clearly and present yourself professionally

  • Are confident across residential and commercial electrical work

  • Don't mind mentoring an apprentice during the week

  • Take real pride in your workmanship

What You'll Get

  • $40–$45hr, experience dependent

  • Company vehicle and phone

  • A supportive team that genuinely has your back

  • Interesting, varied work — not endless new-builds

  • A company that values improvement, skill, and pride in your craft

  • Relocation assistance will be considered for the right applicant

Is This You?

You're not after the easiest gig in town — you're looking to level up, lead by example, and take real pride in your craft. You want to be trusted, respected, and part of a team where your work truly matters.

If that sounds like you, we want to hear from you.
