The Origin Story
A commercial electrical contractor working mostly on maintenance and small fit-out packages for property managers and two industrial clients. Work is repeat rather than tender-driven, which keeps the pipeline predictable.
The owner is not ready to walk away. The preference is a licensed electrician who buys in, learns the commercial side over two years and takes the rest at an agreed formula.
Highlights
- Repeat commercial maintenance contracts across Newcastle and the Hunter
- Nine-person crew with low turnover
- Owner wants to train a successor over two years
- Equity earn-in available instead of a lump sum
