A qualified electrician put Keagan on real jobs. Hear what he has to say.

Reece trained Keagan and worked alongside him on the tools. This is a working sparky and trade trainer talking about what it's like to have Keagan on the team. Worth two minutes of your time.

04 / WHAT I BRING

The kind of apprentice
you want in the van.

Safety first

White Card, current CPR and Working Safely at Heights. On every placement I signed in and out of site and ran risk assessments before starting. I take it seriously.

Reliable

100% attendance in Year 12, always on time, own transport and a current licence. I show up, every day, ready to work.

A team player

Two years volunteering in a busy canteen taught me time management and working as part of a crew. I get on with people and pull my weight.

Genuinely into it

I build electronic circuits for fun just to understand how they work. Strong with circuits, a problem-solver and always keen to learn and improve.

ADF Future Innovators Award 2025

Awarded for outstanding skill and dedication in electrotechnology, alongside school awards for integrity and love of work. Proof the passion is real, not just talk.

05 / WHO I AM

I just finished Year 12 at Cardijn College. Now I want to do the thing I love for real.

I've been into all things electrical for as long as I can remember. I build circuits in my own time just to figure out how they work and how to make them better. I challenge myself with maths problems for fun.

I'm enthusiastic and team-oriented. I want to start my career with a crew that values safety, professionalism and continuous learning. I'm not after a handout. I'm after a chance to earn it.
