For example Jobs and Skills Australia (JSA) estimated that achieving this target will require an additional 85,000 electricians by 2050, with 32,000 needed by 2030 (i).

– Architectural, building, and surveying technicians.
– Power plant operators.
– Engineers specialising in:
Industrial engineering.
Mechanical engineering.
Production engineering.
– Managerial positions such as:
Production managers.
Construction managers.
