How does a Renascent cadetship work?
A cadetship at Renascent provides fully rounded, on-the-job education to a wide array of Aussies ready to break into the construction industry.
Here’s a breakdown of what to expect:
- On-the-job learning
A Renascent cadetship is all about hands-on experience. We understand that the best way to learn is by doing, not watching, and we ensure that our cadets enjoy direct industry experience.
We know how to mix first-person experience with expert guidance. While you will be figuratively and perhaps literally getting your hands dirty, we ensure you also have all the backup you need as you learn. Through the combination of practical experience and a structured and supportive environment, we help you gain the skills necessary to become a leader in the construction industry and enjoy a fulfilling career.
- Your Responsibilities
As supportive as we will be, cadets are also expected to take responsibility, be committed, and be self-motivated. We treat our cadetships as partnerships, and you need to do your share.
This means you will have ownership over your progress and program and the opportunity to drive your own development. You will always have the support of your relevant project and program leaders, who will ensure your program is aligned with the Cadet Management Plan, but the results you achieve will come down to you.
- Duration
The typical length of a cadetship at Renascent is three years.
This can be flexible depending on your personal circumstances and abilities, and the availability of projects throughout your cadetship.
We will work with you to establish a timeline that works for you.
Who are our cadets?
Most cadets at Renascent are tertiary students studying construction-related courses.
As an equal opportunity employer, we take on cadets from all backgrounds and ages and encourage women to apply.
Regional applicants in NSW are particularly welcome, though we provide metropolitan cadetships in different parts of Australia as well.
