We are looking for a versatile Electrician to join our team, serving a diverse portfolio of residential, commercial, and light industrial clients. This role is built for a professional who holds or is looking to finish their requirements to achieve their Red Seal Endorsement (RSE).

As a core member of our electrical division, you will be responsible for ensuring the safety and functionality of electrical systems across various environments. Whether you are a fully certified Journeyperson or a senior apprentice nearing the end of your required hours, you will work to the Red Seal Occupational Standard (RSOS), representing the gold standard of the Canadian electrical trade.

Core Responsibilities

In accordance with the national standards for the Electrician trade, your primary duties include:

System Installation: Install, maintain, and repair electrical systems including lighting, power distribution, and control systems in diverse settings.

Code Compliance: Ensure all installations and repairs strictly adhere to the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) and local provincial amendments.

Wiring & Circuitry: Lay out and install branch circuitry, including conduit, cable trays, and various wire types (NMD, AC90, Teck).

Equipment Service: Connect and service power equipment such as motors, generators, transformers, and renewable energy systems (e.g., EV chargers, solar inverters).

Advanced Troubleshooting: Use diagnostic equipment (multimeters, megohmmeters, power quality analyzers) to identify and rectify faults in energized and de-energized systems.

Safety Leadership: Maintain a zero-compromise approach to safety, including proper use of PPE, Lock-Out/Tag-Out (LOTO) procedures, and working in compliance with NFPA 70E/CSA Z462 standards.

Mentorship: If certified, provide guidance and sign-off for junior apprentices. If finishing requirements, actively document your progress in Major Work Activities (MWAs) to prepare for the Interprovincial Exam.

Qualifications & Requirements

Certification Status: Must be a Journeyperson or a Senior Apprentice currently looking to finish their requirements to achieve their Red Seal Endorsement (RSE).

Technical Breadth: Strong knowledge of electrical theory and the ability to read blueprints, schematics, and technical manuals across residential and commercial sectors.

Problem-Solving Skills: The ability to work independently to solve complex electrical issues on-site.

Physical Capability: Ability to stand for long periods, work in confined spaces or at heights, and lift up to 25kg.

Driver’s License: Valid Class 5 license with a clean driving record for travel to various job sites.

The Red Seal Standard

The Red Seal is Canada's premier indicator of trade excellence. We support your professional standing by providing:

The Path to Completion: For those finishing their RSE, we offer a diverse range of work orders and mentorship to ensure you have the broad experience required to pass the Interprovincial Exam.
