Electrician

TradeSource is actively hiring Journeyman Electricians for a long-term commercial construction project in the New London, CT area. This is not a short-term service call or a few weeks of work—we are looking for experienced electricians who want consistent hours and the opportunity to stay on a project for the long haul.

What You'll Be Doing

• Install, terminate, and troubleshoot electrical systems on an active commercial construction project while maintaining production schedules and quality standards.
• Install and bend electrical conduit, including accurately measuring, cutting, threading, and bending pipe to match layouts, equipment, and jobsite conditions.
• Perform conduit installation, wire pulling, terminations, and equipment connections according to project specifications, plans, and applicable electrical codes.
• Read and interpret electrical blueprints, schematics, and layouts to determine material requirements, installation locations, conduit routing, and proper placement of electrical systems.
• Install electrical devices, panels, fixtures, and associated equipment while ensuring work is completed accurately and safely the first time.
• Work alongside other electricians and construction trades while coordinating installations around ongoing framing, mechanical, plumbing, and other construction activities.
• Identify and correct installation issues or electrical deficiencies before they create delays, failed inspections, or unnecessary rework for the project.
• Maintain a clean and organized work area while following OSHA requirements and all project-specific safety procedures.
• Work independently or as part of an electrical crew while maintaining reliable attendance, productivity, and professional jobsite standards.

What We're Looking For

• Journeyman-level electrician E2/E1 with commercial construction experience and the ability to perform quality electrical work with limited supervision.
• Strong conduit and pipe-bending skills, including the ability to accurately bend EMT and other conduit to meet prints, measurements, and field conditions.
• Experience with commercial electrical installations including conduit, wire pulling, terminations, panels, fixtures, and electrical equipment.
• Ability to confidently read blueprints, electrical prints, and schematics and translate drawings into accurate field installations.
• Solid understanding of electrical codes, installation methods, and construction practices with the ability to recognize and resolve common jobsite issues.
• OSHA 10 certification is preferred, with the ability and willingness to complete any additional safety training required for the project.
• Reliable transportation and dependable attendance are required due to the long-term nature of the project and consistent work schedule.
• Strong work ethic and commitment to completing the project are essential—we are looking for electricians interested in steady, long-term work.
