Job Description

You’ve put in the time, learned the trade, and earned your title. At Main Street Electrical, we respect that expertise. We don’t micromanage, and we don’t believe that a good living requires sacrificing your personal life.

We keep our pipeline steady with a healthy mix of residential and commercial projects right here in the Belleville area. If you are looking for a company where you can show up, do clean, high-quality work independently, and actually be home for dinner every night—this is it.

What We Offer:

  • True Work-Life Balance: No weekends and no mandatory overtime. Your time off is yours.
  • Autonomy: We trust your skills. You’ll be given the blueprints, the specs, and the trust to get the job done right.
  • Local Focus: Spend less time windshield-driving across counties and more time doing real work close to home.

What You’ll Do (Responsibilities):

As a Journeyman Electrician with us, you’ll lead by example on the job site. Your day-to-day will involve:

  • Installation & Upgrades: Efficiently installing electrical systems across diverse residential and commercial settings.
  • Diagnostic & Repair: Troubleshooting complex electrical issues, performing circuit repairs, and testing equipment to ensure everything functions perfectly.
  • Blueprint Execution: Reading and accurately interpreting blueprints and wiring diagrams to layout and finish jobs seamlessly.
  • Code & Safety Ownership: Ensuring all work strictly complies with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and maintaining pristine safety standards on site.
  • Documentation: Keeping straightforward, accurate records of the work performed.

What We’re Looking For (Qualifications):

  • Experience: 4+ years of professional electrical experience (residential and/or commercial layout and rough-in to finish).
  • Technical Knowledge: Strong working knowledge of the NEC, diagnostic testing, and equipment troubleshooting.
  • Mindset: A true professional who communicates clearly with clients and team members, solves problems on the fly, and takes pride in a clean bend and a neat panel.
  • Tools & Transport: Proficient with standard hand and power tools of the trade, with a reliable way to get to local job sites.
