 What is a Boilermaker:

Boilermaking is a specialist trade occupation that focuses on fabricating and welding a range of metal products, typically those that hold liquids and gases under pressure.

Boilermakers work in a variety of environments including industrial, marine, mining and manufacturing sectors. They use blueprints and other technical drawings to measure and cut materials such as steel, plate, and tubing to build and assemble boiler parts.

A career pathway through a boilermaker apprenticeship will see you tackling a range of hands-on metal repair, fabrication and production work.
