The Opportunity
Rightway Recruitment is representing a well-established electrical contractor in Greater Vancouver that is continuing to grow its service division. They are looking for an experienced Red Seal Service Electrician who is confident working independently, troubleshooting electrical issues, and dealing directly with customers.
This isn't simply a role where you're handed a work order and sent to site. You'll take ownership of service calls, diagnose issues, recommend solutions, provide estimates, and become a trusted point of contact for customers.
You'll have the autonomy to manage your work in the field while being backed by a supportive office team and ownership group. The company offers steady, long-term work alongside the opportunity to take on greater responsibility as the service division continues to grow.
Key Responsibilities
- Complete electrical service, maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair work across Greater Vancouver
- Diagnose electrical issues and recommend appropriate repair solutions
- Manage service calls independently from initial assessment through completion
- Provide a high level of customer service and communicate clearly with clients
- Prepare accurate estimates and identify additional electrical work or repairs where required
- Coordinate with office administration and ownership to schedule and complete service work
- Use field software for scheduling, estimating, invoicing, and job documentation
- Maintain accurate records of work completed
- Ensure work is completed safely and in accordance with applicable electrical codes and company standards
- Take ownership of smaller projects and service jobs through the company
What You Bring
- Red Seal / TQ Journeyman Electrician certification
- 4+ years of electrical service experience
- Strong troubleshooting and diagnostic skills
- Comfortable working independently and making sound repair recommendations
- Strong communication and customer service skills
- Ability to accurately estimate electrical service and repair work
- Comfortable using smartphones, field applications, and service management software
- Organized and able to manage multiple service calls and priorities
- Valid BC Driver's Licence
The company is specifically looking for someone with a strong service background who is equally comfortable dealing with customers and completing the technical work in the field.
Working Environment
- Field-based role covering Greater Vancouver
- Combination of service calls, troubleshooting, repairs, and smaller electrical projects
- High level of independence and ownership over your day
- Direct communication with customers, office administration, and company ownership
- Modern field software and streamlined internal processes
- Supportive, non-hierarchical team environment where employees are encouraged to contribute ideas
Compensation & Benefits
- $40.00 - $60.00/hour depending on experience
- Profit-sharing structure in addition to hourly compensation
- Company vehicle
- Extended health, dental, and vision coverage
- Life and disability insurance
- Paid time off
- Flexible schedule
- Training incentives and course reimbursement
- Ongoing professional and career development
The position is an immediate opening and is intended as a long-term addition to the team rather than a temporary or project-based hire.
Why This Role?
- Strong hourly rate plus additional profit-sharing potential
- Steady, long-term electrical service work across Greater Vancouver
- Opportunity to take ownership of your own service calls and smaller projects
- Work directly with customers rather than being limited to one area of the trade
- Company investment in additional training, tickets, and career development
- Regular career check-ins and opportunities to take on additional responsibility
- Modern tools and systems designed to make field work more efficient
- Join a smaller, collaborative team where your input and ideas are valued
