Commercial Electrical Foreman

About the Role
You've run crews, built jobs from rough-in to trim-out, and fixed problems before the GC ever knew about them. Now you want to do it for a company that backs you up. At Cove Electric, you'll lead commercial and hospitality projects with the support of a 50-year company that's here to stay, and you'll work local, close to home.

What You'll Run

• Read and interpret plans, specs, and RFIs, and catch issues early
• Lay out work, order material, and manage manpower and daily schedules
• Coordinate with GCs, other trades, and inspectors
• Install and oversee service, distribution, panels, lighting controls, and low-voltage tie-ins
• Make sure work meets NEC, California Electrical Code, and Title 24 requirements
• Keep jobs safe, clean, and on schedule
• Track daily reports, change-order work, and material usage

What It Takes

• California General Electrician certification
• 7+ years of commercial electrical experience, including [3]+ years as a foreman
• Proven experience running crews on commercial projects; hotel and multi-story experience is a plus
• Strong blueprint reading, conduit bending, and layout skills
• Working knowledge of NEC, CEC, and Title 24
• Valid California driver's license and clean DMV
• Leadership that gets respect on the job site, not just the title

Why Cove Electric
