Smoke Alarm Electricians (Qualified) – Looking for a Change (and a Pay Rise)?

If you're a licensed electrician doing smoke alarm compliance, you already know the job:

- Rental property access
- Dealing with tenants and property managers
- Working on your own and running your own day

At DC Electrical, we're looking for qualified electricians to join our Maintenance & Service Team, working across rental properties throughout Brisbane. This role suits a smoke alarm electrician who wants:

✔ A pay rise

✔ Fewer properties per day

✔ Real electrical work again, not just testing and swapping alarms

✔ Start early, finish early - no peak hour traffic waiting to start your first job

✔ Be in a fully fit out Ute or Van - say goodbye to the hatchback.

The best part?

You already know how real estate work runs. You'd be doing the same kind of work, just using more of your trade.

What You'll Be Doing

- General electrical maintenance: power points, lighting, exhaust fans, appliances, hot water
- Smoke alarm compliance where needed (you already know it)




- Writing up transparent job notes and reports

Why Smoke Alarm Electricians Are Making the Move

Better Pay

- $45–$50/hr + super, above typical smoke alarm rates
- Paid for your trade, not your property count

No More Key Collection Runs

- Start onsite and finish onsite
- No waiting for agencies to open
- No rushing back to drop keys before 5pm

Fewer Properties Per Day

- Usually 2–8 jobs a day, not 15–20 smoke alarm visits

Use Your Licence

- Varied, hands-on electrical work every day
- Keep your fault-finding and install skills sharp

Same Industry You Know

- Still working in rental properties
- Same kind of work with property managers
- Same tenant access coordination

What You'll Need

- Current QLD Electrical Licence
- Current driver's licence
- Experience in residential or rental property work (smoke alarm compliance experience welcome)
