electrical jobs in Australia
Find an electrician
Describe the installation or fault you want assessed, including the rooms and existing fittings. A clear brief lets an electrician distinguish a new installation from a repair.
Choose Electrician when posting, then add your town or suburb and state. Registered trades can view shared briefs that match their trade and state.
Common electrical projects
- Lighting and power points
- Switchboard assessments
- Data and appliance connections
Before agreeing to the work
Who supplies the fittings, and is inspection or testing included? Discuss any required approvals with the electrician.
Confirm the person’s experience, relevant qualifications and insurance directly. Agree on a written scope and price before work starts.
What to include in your job brief
- List the number and location of lights, outlets or appliances involved. Say whether this is a new installation or a fault with an existing fitting.
- Add photos of accessible fittings and labels without removing covers or touching wiring. Note the appliance model where relevant.
- Describe wall and ceiling access, your property type and any preferred placement. Explain what equipment you already have.
An example brief
I want two additional outdoor lights near the patio. Photos show the existing light and proposed positions. Please advise on suitable fittings and installation.
Replace the details with your own job, location, photos and timing. A clear brief helps a tradie decide whether the work suits them.
How TradeBrief helps
You can sign in as a client to share a job brief with photos and a contact method. TradeBrief is in early access: responses and local availability depend on the trades using the platform. Posting does not guarantee a quote or a booking.
The directory shows sponsored businesses when listings are available. A listing is not a guarantee of suitability for your job.
