- Manage jobs from planning through execution
- Step into the field to perform journeyman-level electrical work as needed
- Ensure all work meets code, safety, and quality standards

- Experience with estimating, takeoffs, or job costing
- Strong understanding of electrical systems, code, and field execution
- Ability to communicate professionally with customers and team members
- Organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple jobs
