Company Summary

We are a commercial electrical contractor serving the Southeast, delivering high-quality electrical work on new-construction and remodel projects. We run our jobs the right way: a skilled foreman anchored on each project, accurate planning, and clean, code-compliant installations that pass inspection the first time. We believe the people running the work in the field are the backbone of the business — not just labor, but trusted leaders. If you take pride in doing the job right, leading a crew well, and being the person the Superintendent counts on, this is the place for you.

Job Summary

The Foreman / Journeyman Electrician leads electrical work in the field on commercial new-construction and remodel projects. You will read and interpret commercial blueprints, schedule the work directly with the Superintendent, order the materials needed to keep the job moving, and supervise a small crew of two to four. This role demands technical mastery, strong leadership, and a commitment to delivering safe, code-compliant work on schedule — every job, every time.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Lead electrical work on commercial new-construction and remodel/renovation projects, staying anchored on one project at a time.
• Read and interpret commercial blueprints and execute the work to specification and code.
• Schedule and sequence work directly with the Superintendent to keep the project on track.
• Plan ahead and order the materials needed for upcoming work so the crew is never waiting on parts.
• Supervise and direct a crew of two to four — typically a Level 1 electrician and apprentices.
• Keep a daily job log documenting crew, progress, materials, and any issues.
• Maintain a safe, clean, and organized job site in line with company and OSHA standards.
• Troubleshoot field issues and make sound on-site decisions to keep work moving.
• Ensure all work passes inspection and meets quality standards before sign-off.
• Mentor apprentices and reinforce safe, correct work habits across the crew.

• Work that passes inspection the first time, with no rework or callbacks.
• A productive crew that is developing and growing under your direction.
• A Superintendent who trusts you to manage your scope without hand-holding.
• Accurate daily logs and forward material planning that keep the job moving.
• Upholding our standard — safe, clean, code-compliant work with no shortcuts.

• High level of integrity, accuracy, and professional pride.
• Able to work productively at a steady pace in a team-oriented environment.
• Valid drivers license and clean MVR
• US Citizen or valid work permit

Why This Role Is Different

This is not a churn-and-burn, cut-corners operation. Here, foremen are trusted professionals — the leaders running the work, not just wrenches. You'll be given a project to own, the support to plan and material it properly, and the autonomy to manage your crew and your relationship with the superintendent. The focus is on getting it right the first time. If you're tired of shops that sacrifice quality for volume and leave you stretched across too many jobs, this is the environment you've been looking for.
