"Over 100 apprentices and trainees are being sought by Transport for NSW to work on major projects across the state as part of its Regional and Outer Metropolitan Apprentice and Trainee Programs," she said.
"Opportunities are available across 11 disciplines, including civil construction, heavy diesel mechanics, bridge construction, electrical, painting and blasting, business administration, project management, marketing and communications, finance and safety, environment and quality and metal fabricating.
"Last year, 74 per cent of apprentices and trainees went on to secure permanent employment at Transport for NSW."
Ms Tesch said that these regional positions represented valuable professional development opportunities for young people and others.
"Our school leavers - and anyone looking to get their start in the workforce who wants to gain life-long skills, on-the-job training and receive a nationally recognised qualification are encouraged to put in an application."
Transport for NSW had been engaging with local high schools to promote the various entry level pathways available at Transport for NSW, she said.
