About the programme

Internship Programme

An internship at Kell Electricals puts you alongside our engineering and technical teams on real jobs (assessments, installations, testing and documentation), under supervision. Beyond our core electrical and solar engineering work, internship placements are also available across project operations, sales and client relations, IT and digital operations, and administration and finance, depending on available opportunities and your background. It's a way to see how an electrical contractor led by COREN-registered engineers, operating to NEMSA-compliant standards, actually works day to day.
