TradeConnex talent on site in Sunshine Coast

Labour hire for Sunshine Coast projects

Near Gympie, TradeConnex supplied labour hire to the Munna Creek Solar Farm, a 150MW project with more than 255,000 panels across about 467 hectares. From October 2024 to November 2025 we placed more than 150 talent on site, including solar labourers, plant operators, mechanical and electrical trade assistants, HSE advisors, store personnel and junior project management support.

The site was remote, the terrain was difficult and the weather was extreme, which made finding and keeping a reliable crew one of the project’s biggest challenges. Our job was to keep that crew consistent and supported from the start of construction to the end, so the build could keep moving safely and on schedule.

Closer to the coast, we supply labourers, carpenters, concreters and trades to residential and commercial builders from Caloundra to Noosa, and to civil contractors working on roads and new estates. For utility-scale solar elsewhere in Queensland, see Toowoomba and Gladstone.
