JOB POSTING • OUTDOOR ELECTRICAL CONSTRUCTION

OUTDOOR ELECTRICAL CONSTRUCTION FOREMAN | FULL-TIME | EAST COAST TRAVEL

Not Just a Foreman. A Working Electrician Who Leads.

From roadway and parking lot lighting to commercial sites, sports facilities and other outdoor electrical infrastructure, Lighting Maintenance, Inc. (LMI) builds and maintains the systems that keep communities moving. We are looking for an experienced, hands-on electrician who can also lead a field crew, manage a jobsite and deliver quality work safely.

You know how to read the plans, pull wire, install conduit, troubleshoot a circuit and get the lights on. Just as important, you know how to organize a crew, make decisions in the field and keep a project on schedule. If that sounds like you, we want to talk.

What You’ll Build and Lead

• Work alongside and supervise electricians, equipment operators, apprentices and helpers on outdoor electrical construction projects.
• Install and oversee conduit, wiring, lighting fixtures, poles, foundations, service equipment, controls and related site electrical infrastructure.
• Troubleshoot electrical circuits, lighting controls, power distribution and equipment issues in the field.
• Plan daily work, crew assignments, materials, equipment, inspections and coordination with contractors and customers.
• Promote safe practices around energized equipment, excavation, rigging, lifts, traffic and elevated work.
• Track production, time, material usage, cost codes, job documentation and project updates accurately.

What Makes You a Strong Fit

• 5+ years of electrical construction experience, including substantial outdoor or commercial electrical work.
• Hands-on knowledge of conduit installation, wiring, terminations, electrical distribution, lighting systems and troubleshooting.
• Experience leading crews, coordinating jobsite work and working with contractors, inspectors and project teams.
• Ability to read drawings and specifications and apply the National Electrical Code and safe work practices.
• Willingness to travel and stay overnight for projects from the Mid-Atlantic into the Southeast, as needed.
• Journeyman Electrician license and CDL strongly preferred; sports lighting or Musco experience is a plus, not a requirement.

The Work Happens Outside

This is a field-based, physically active role working outdoors in changing weather, around heavy equipment and sometimes at heights using approved equipment. Overtime and travel are based on project needs. Projects may extend from Maryland, Northern Virginia and Washington, DC south through Florida.

The Benefits of Building with LMI

Join an established electrical contractor with opportunities to lead meaningful outdoor infrastructure projects. Eligible employees may receive medical, dental, vision and prescription benefits; life and disability coverage; PTO; paid holidays; a 401(k); and career development opportunities, subject to plan terms.
