December 3, 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

QBuild – the State Government’s builder – has job openings available at the moment for 80 qualified tradespeople and 20 apprentices across the State, including Kingaroy.<\/p>\n

Opportunities are also available at Atherton, Bundaberg, Cairns, Maryborough, Rockhampton, Thursday Island and Toowoomba.<\/p>\n

The 80 qualified trades jobs include plumbers, painters, electricians, carpenters and refrigeration mechanics.<\/p>\n

The latest round of recruitment is part of the State Government\u2019s “Rebuilding QBuild” initiative which means a total of 300 trades-based staff, including 60 apprentices, will have joined QBuild over the past three years.<\/p>\n

\u201cPrevious intakes of QBuild apprentices have come from diverse backgrounds, including former defence force personnel, people of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander descent, women and mature aged apprentices all with varying levels of trade-related experience,”\u00a0Public Works Minister Mick de Brenni said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor this next apprentice intake, we will specifically encourage young Queensland women to consider hard-hat careers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cRight now, 16 per cent of QBuild\u2019s apprentices are women. That\u2019s even better than the National Women in Construction target of 11 per cent.<\/p>\n

\u201cQBuild provides decent, well-paid, and secure employment.<\/p>\n

\u201cI encourage everyone interested in a trades job that offers variety and job security \u2013 and where opportunities are endless \u2013 to keep an eye out for the jobs being advertised on SmartJobs.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
