We're looking for an experienced Electrical Foreman who can lead from the field, communicate effectively, and take ownership of the work. This role is ideal for someone who knows how to keep a crew moving, solve problems, ask the right questions, and deliver quality work safely and efficiently.

• Mentor and develop electricians and apprentices on your team.
• Help create a positive, accountable, and productive jobsite culture.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for more than someone who knows electrical work. The strongest Foremen at Chambers Electric are leaders. You communicate clearly, take ownership, and know when to ask questions or raise your hand. You can lead a crew while remaining hands‑on, and you understand that the success of a project depends on teamwork, accountability, and attention to detail.

Preferred Qualifications

• Previous experience as an Electrical Foreman or Lead Electrician.
• Strong commercial electrical experience.
• Ability to read and interpret electrical drawings and specifications.
