AV Apprentice

Static Site – Sydney CBD

About AE Smith

We are returning to our roots. Since 2023 AE Smith is a privately owned business once more, and its an understatement to say we have gone through a bit of a transition period. We are still the same organisation that has operated for over 120 years as an Australian industry leader in HVAC, building services and electrical markets, but we have a renewed approach to the way we work and operate. As asset specialists, we understand our #1 asset is our people. We’re proud of our team’s depth and breadth of experience and with over 600 of us united in our work and our brands, it’s unsurprising our average employee tenure is market leading, but we are always keen on adding new faces to our team.
