https://www.matchamint.work/jobs/679/journeyman-electrician---experienced-679 This isn't a follow-the-manual kind of role. Our Journeyman/Journeywoman Electricians work across a range of industrial projects — sometimes a single large scope, sometimes multiple smaller ones on the same site. Either way, you're expected to bring your A-game, work independently, and execute to code without someone looking over your shoulder. If you're the kind of electrician who's energized by a challenge, takes pride in clean installs, and holds yourself to a high standard — we want to talk.
