  • Communicates constraints early (access, shutdowns, missing parts, conflicts).

Leadership & Crew Control

  • Can lead 2–6 electricians and keep everyone productive.
  • Runs quick morning plan: “What we’re doing / Who’s doing it / What we need / What could block us.”
  • Coaches apprentices with clear expectations and checks work before it becomes rework.
  • Handles punchlist without drama—close it, document it, move on.

  • Ability to troubleshoot basic issues (continuity, polarity, phase rotation as required by scope).

Preferred Qualifications

  • OSHA 30 (preferred), lift certs (preferred), fall protection training (preferred).
  • Prior experience on industrial sites (automotive plants, data centers, manufacturing).
  • Experience with turnover, punch lists, and client standards.
  • Ability to read specs and enforce them, not just “install it.”
