Our story
The spark behind Ginger Electrics.
A passion for the trade, an international apprenticeship, and a simple promise to every customer.
One electrician's long way home.
- The start · United Kingdom
Four years, tools down.
Straight out of school into a four-year apprenticeship — residential, commercial, and even the tunnelling industry, where the stakes (and the cables) ran a little heavier.
- Further afield · Egypt · Holland
Working the world.
International projects took the trade abroad — different sites, different standards, the same obsession with doing it properly.
- A turning point · London
Then came a Kiwi.
A London job, an introduction, and a reason to look at the other side of the world. New Zealand started to feel like home before he'd even arrived.
- A fresh start · New Zealand
Earning the registration.
A full year transferring qualifications and becoming a registered New Zealand electrician — no shortcuts, the right way in.
- Scaling up · Wellington
Three years of big builds.
Working for a prominent Wellington firm on large-scale new builds — learning how the city's most ambitious projects come together, circuit by circuit.
- Today · Ginger Electrics
