Residential Service Electrician

$35+/Hour + Commission | 100% Paid Benefits | No Weekends

Already working somewhere? Good.

We're not looking for someone who just needs a job.

We're looking for an experienced residential electrician who's ready for a better one.

Mel Carr Electric has been serving the Capital Region for 50 years. We've built a team, a reputation, and a company we're proud of, including 1,800+ five-star Google reviews and recognition as the Times Union Best Electrician.

Now we're looking for one experienced Service Electrician to join us.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?

$35+/hour PLUS commission. Our compensation structure gives experienced service electricians the opportunity to earn $80,000–$120,000+ annually.

100% COMPANY-PAID BENEFITS
Medical. Dental. Vision. Life Insurance. Long-Term Disability.

401(k) + 4% company match

2 weeks paid vacation your first year + paid holidays

Monday-Friday. NO weekends.

Year-round work.

A fully stocked service truck, iPhone & iPad provided.

Professional training and opportunities to keep growing.

And most importantly:

You'll work for a company that knows the difference between a great electrician and just another employee.

WHAT THE JOB ACTUALLY IS

You'll run residential electrical service calls throughout the Capital Region.

You'll diagnose problems, talk with homeowners about their options, make recommendations, and complete high quality electrical repairs and installations.

This isn't new construction.

This isn't spending every day pulling wire on the same jobsite.

And you won't be left on an island.

You'll have a professional customer service and dispatch team scheduling your calls and supporting you throughout the day.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

You should have:

3+ years of residential electrical experience
Strong troubleshooting and diagnostic skills
The ability to confidently run residential service calls independently
Pride in clean, professional electrical work
Good communication skills with homeowners
A valid driver's license
A desire to keep learning and getting better

You don't need to know everything.

You do need to be a good electrician, care about your work, and want to be part of a professional team.

WHY MEL CARR ELECTRIC?

There are plenty of places where an electrician can get a paycheck.

We're trying to build something better than that.

For 50 years, Mel Carr Electric has built its reputation by taking care of customers and taking pride in our work.

We invest in our people, our training, our trucks, our technology, and the tools our electricians need to succeed.

We want people who plan on being here for the long haul.

THINKING ABOUT MAKING A CHANGE?

You don't need a perfect résumé.

And you don't have to tell your current employer you're looking.

All applications and conversations are completely confidential.

If you're an experienced residential electrician and you're even a little curious about whether Mel Carr Electric could be a better place to work, apply.

Let's have a conversation.
