Welcome to
Wilco Electrical

Established in 2006, multi award winning Wilco Electrical has grown to become among the most trusted, capable and respected Aboriginal owned businesses in WA.

With a proven track record of delivering electrical projects and services throughout the state on time and within budget, Wilco, through the ambitious "20 by 2020" program, has also been a leader in creating apprenticeships and employment opportunities for Aboriginal men and women.

With capability and broad experience across all aspects of Electrical, Renewables and Communications services, Wilco provides innovative, best value solutions to our clients while maintaining a strong foundation of quality and trust delivered in a safe and socially responsible way.

20 by 2020  ~ Strive to 25 by 2025

In December 2016, Director Frank Mitchell, made a pledge to create 20 electrical apprenticeships by the end of 2020 for Aboriginal & Torres Straight Islander men and women.

"The opportunity presented itself because someone recognised the potential in me and was willing to give me a chance.  I didn’t understand the word ‘reciprocity’ until later, but I understood that with opportunity comes responsibility.  I wanted to make that same difference to others who needed a hand up."

Frank Mitchell joined Tim Bidstrup to become first-time business owners in 2015. At the time, we had nine employees and they were excited by the prospect of not only being managers, but leaders as well. Frank recognised that his acceleration from apprentice, to electrician, to project manager, to Director, to co-owner, had all started with something that was beyond his control.

Here we are, four years later. Although we created 12 x electrical apprenticeships, we created 22 positions in total due to the evolution of Wilco.

These included 4 traineeships in Construction, 3 in Administration, and 3 Trade Assistant positions. Out of all 22 positions only the Trade Assistant positions were casual.

We have not rested following our success of the 20 by 2020 initiative. Our commitment to creating Aboriginal apprenticeships continues with our Strive to 25 initiative, where we have committed to creating a further 25 positions for Aboriginal people by the end of 2025.

We thank our extended work team who have been absolutely magnificent in being supervisors, trainers and mentors to all the Aboriginal men and women on this journey.

Importantly, we would not have been able to achieve this journey without the support of our clients! Giving us an opportunity and standing beside us as we strived to grow a culture of corporate social responsibility.

The Wilco Defence division is committed to upholding the reputation of the Department of Defence through the delivery of a broad range of services, from bespoke HV and LV electrical design and construction, HVAC and mechanical design and construction through to specialist communications and fibre optic installations.  

With in-house expertise in delivering Defence projects, including HOTO management & completion and Aviation Electrical Services - Maintenance, inspections & installations, design & consultancy, Wilco is able to support clients in the delivery of the desired outcomes for all stakeholders in the maintenance of Defence capability and delivery of a broad scope of works to Projects and the EMOS.

In addition to Wilco’s in house expertise and capacity, Wilco is supported by its Incorporated, Supply Nation Certified joint venture, Baldja. Incorporating fellow Aboriginal owned construction company Kardan Construction and RSGx (Resources Services Group X), this JV enables us to work collaboratively to deliver complex construction projects through planning & design, Construction, HOTO and DLP maintenance, reactive maintenance, and remediation at bases across Western Australia.
