Transport for NSW's Apprentice and Trainee Programs

Transport for NSW's Apprentice and Trainee Programs give successful applicants paid training on the job while gaining valuable skills, and a nationally recognised qualification at the completion of their program.

Close to 90 per cent of the opportunities will be based in rural and regional NSW.

This is because local skills and talent are central to the Minns Government's mission to build a better NSW.

Whether it's project management in Wagga or metalwork in the Hunter, these roles give young people the chance to learn, work and thrive in their hometowns.

Programs on offer span eleven specialist areas, including civil construction, business, finance, fitter, project management, bridge construction and maintenance, heavy diesel mechanical, metal fabrication, painting and decorating, engineering mechanical and operational management systems.

Transport for NSW is engaging with local high schools across regional NSW and Greater Sydney through a range of career events and six industry days.

These days provided students in Years 10, 11 and 12 with hands-on experience in some of the trades Transport for NSW is currently seeking apprentices in.

Applications for Transport for NSW's 2026 Apprentice and Trainee Programs are open now. Sydney-based roles close at midnight on 24 August, with roles across regional NSW closing at midnight on 31 August.
