Follow all safety standards, electrical codes, and site protocols to maintain a safe and compliant work environment. Assist with limited cross-trade tasks (HVAC, carpentry, installation) as needed, with a primary focus remaining on electrical work. Essential Skills Minimum of 2 years of experience in construction, with hands-on exposure to electrical or low-voltage work preferred. Strong understanding of electrical installation practices, including wiring, conduit, and device installation. Ability to safely use power tools, hand tools, and basic electrical testing equipment. Ability to read blueprints, electrical schematics, and construction drawings. Accurate measurement skills, including reading a tape measure to 1/16 of an inch.

Additional Skills & Qualifications Experience with low-voltage systems such as data, communications, or control wiring. Exposure to commercial electrical installations, including lighting systems and panel work. Familiarity with final-phase (finish) electrical work and system commissioning.
