Melbourne Electrical Maintenance (MEM) is a trusted name in the commercial electrical industry, responsible for maintaining some of Australia’s largest universities, leading tertiary institutions and most recognisable organisations. Across a portfolio of more than 500 buildings, no two days are the same. One day you could be repairing, installing, fault-finding, performing statutory testing within a university campus, and the next installing electrical infrastructure supporting multi-million-dollar research equipment.
Alongside our core maintenance services, MEM delivers commercial electrical projects valued up to $5 million, giving our electricians exposure to a diverse range of challenging and high-impact work. Our people and culture are a major part of what makes MEM different. In recognition of our workplace culture, employee support and commitment to excellence, MEM was proud to be named a Finalist in the 2025 Australian Financial Review Best Places to Work Awards and is currently a Finalist in the 2026 NECA Victoria Excellence Awards.
