Why Us

Suede is a fully qualified electrician who was born in Mossman and after a short time in South East QLD, then made the move back with his young family. He joined our team in Feb 2025 and with many years in the game brings a wealth of experience to our team. He fits in well with the Dolphin Electrical way of doing things and has extensive knowledge of Workplace Health and Safety practices. Outside of work there is never a dull moment as he is kept busy with family, his wife Angie and 3 kids. When he has the time, he likes to go fishing and camping with his family.

Conor joined the Dolphin Team as a mature age apprentice in June 2024. The Port Douglas community brought him to our attention as we had over a dozen people contact us to tell us he was looking for the opportunity of a career change. After immigrating from the UK with his partner Kerry in 2016 Conor spent years in the hospitality industry, most notably at the locals favourite Salsa Bar & Grill. Together they have bought a property in Port Douglas, putting down roots and settling in. Kerry works in Admin at Douglas Shire Council and they love to take advantage of all the area has to offer camping in their roof top tent with their fur baby Murphy.

Mia is the first female apprentice Dolphin Electrical has had the opportunity to train. She has developed into an exceptional Tradie fully qualifying in 2025. We first met Mia when she did work experience with us while at Mossman High School and we were very impressed by her interest in the trade and willingness to learn. When she kept stopping by the office afterwards, we knew she was keen and thought we would be crazy not to give her the opportunity. We love to be able to give locals the chance to chase their dream job and Mia is fun to have around. When she’s not at work, she plays AFL with the Crocs and hangs out with her very large family. (She is one of 9 kids)

Tayhla first came on board with us as a casual Admin Assistant in May 2024 to help us out of a bind and she fit in so well we offered her the position on a permanent basis. She has learned the ropes and developed into a sensational support for our admin team. She will likely be the first person you speak to when you call us and does an awesome job of keeping both our clients and our staff in the loop. Tayhla grew up in Port Douglas and when she’s not fitting pieces into our giant schedule puzzle she likes to hang out with her partner River, her crazy puppy Otis or her friends. Unless she has snuck off to a quiet corner with a great book.

Kobe joined our team in Jan 2026 as a first-year apprentice after having done work experience with us while at St Stephen’s College in Mareeba. After completing his Cert 2 in Electrotechnology while still at school he was keen to undertake an apprenticeship to become fully qualified. Local to Port Douglas since age 3 we have known him since he was knee high to a grasshopper and know he comes from a great hard-working family. You may have come across him working at Rattle n Hum or out on the footie field playing AFL for the Crocs. What he lacks in age and life experience he more than makes up for in smarts. We are confident he will develop into an excellent Tradie.
