About The Position

Serve Electric is hiring an Industrial Electrician at Level 4 Apprentice or Journeyman level for field work based in Tampa, Florida, with travel to job sites. The role is for an experienced industrial electrician who will lead electrical work on industrial sites, manage installations, direct crew members, uphold code and safety standards, and represent the company on each project.
