Project Overview

The Wollar Solar Farm is a major renewable energy project spanning nearly 500 hectares in the Central Tablelands region of New South Wales. With a generation capacity of up to 280MWac and around 660,000 solar panels, the project forms a significant part of New South Wales’ transition to clean, reliable power.

Full-Service Workforce Support

TradeConnex supported multiple contractors across the project, supplying over 100 workers throughout the construction phase. The breadth of roles was one of the most diverse of any project we have worked on, including:

  • Project and site leadership: Construction Manager, Electrical Project Manager, Project Program Scheduler, Contract Administrator
  • Technical specialists: Engineers, Site Administrators, O&M Manager, Environmental Manager, Permit Officer
  • HSE and compliance: HSE Advisors across all site operations
  • Electrical and installation: Module Installers, Electricians, HV Cable Jointer
  • Plant operators: Piling, Excavator, Telehandler, Skidsteer and Forklift Operators
  • Logistics and labour: HC Drivers, Trade Assistants, General Labourers

Outcome at Wollar Solar Farm

Managing workforce supply across multiple contractors on a single large-scale site requires coordination, flexibility and a deep understanding of how a solar farm gets built. TradeConnex moved quickly, filled critical roles and kept each contractor’s workforce needs met as the project progressed through its key phases.

The Wollar Solar Farm is one of the strongest examples of TradeConnex’s full-service recruitment and labour hire capability, placing both white-collar professionals and blue-collar trades and labour on the same project, under the same roof.
