J-man and Apprentice Electrician – Build Something That Matters
Journeyman and Apprentice Electrician
Description
Better Built Electric is looking for a journeyman and apprentice electrician for commercial electrical work. The right candidate is someone who shows up ready, works hard, and wants to grow into a key role on a solid crew.
This is not a “clock in and coast” position. We’re building a team of people who take pride in their work, hold a high standard, and want to be part of something that’s getting better every job.
If you’re dependable, willing to learn, and can put in a full day without being chased around, you’ll fit here.
What You’ll Be Doing
Commercial electrical work (hotels, retail, tenant upfits, service work)
Running conduit, installing lighting, and assisting with layouts
Troubleshooting basic issues and learning advanced diagnostics
Reading prints and learning how to apply code on real jobs
Working alongside and eventually helping guide apprentices
What We’re Looking For
Shows up prepared and ready to work
Reliable and follows through—no disappearing mid-project
Takes ownership of mistakes and fixes them without excuses
Willing to learn and improve every day
Can work clean, safe, and organized
Communicates clearly with the crew and jobsite leadership
Team player—no ego, no drama
Requirements
Reliable vehicle (non-negotiable)
Willingness to travel and work out of town when needed( we have mostly local work)
Basic electrical experience preferred, but not required if you’re willing to learn fast
What You’ll Get
Hands-on training—I will personally teach you what I know
Opportunity to grow into a lead role and help shape the crew
Consistent commercial work
A company that values execution, quality, and work ethic over paperwork
If you want a place where your work actually matters—and where you can grow into a core part of the company—this is it.
We are a commercial‑focused electrical contractor built around one simple idea: do clean, reliable work for serious clients and stand behind it every time.
We handle projects for large hotel chains, national retail brands, and well‑known commercial property groups—companies that expect professional crews, tight schedules, and zero drama on site. Our work ranges from new builds and tenant improvements to service and upgrades in occupied spaces, so our electricians see real‑world challenges, not just textbook installs.
We keep our standards high: neat conduit, organized panels, labeled circuits, and code‑compliant installs that look as good as they perform. Safety and presentation matter here, because we’re often working in places where the client’s customers, guests, and executives will see our work and our people.
Culture‑wise, we’re small enough that every good hire matters and big enough to offer steady commercial work. We value execution over credentials, and we invest in people who show up, learn fast, and take pride in doing the job the right way. The goal is to build a core team of electricians who can grow with the company and become the foundation for future crews.
