Job Description
Elite Construction Services is hiring a licensed electrician for residential and light commercial work in the Phoenix metro (Surprise, Scottsdale, Phoenix, and nearby). This is a hands-on field role, not a new-construction wire-pulling job. We need someone who can replace service panels, install and feed subpanels, and diagnose problems without guessing.
What you’ll do
• Replace and upgrade residential service panels (100A–400A) including load calculations, bonding/grounding, and clean changeovers
• Install subpanels in garages, additions, shops, and outbuildings; size feeders, breakers, and grounding correctly
• Run new dedicated circuits (240V appliances, water heaters, HVAC, shops)
• Troubleshoot no-power, nuisance trips, loose neutrals, overloaded panels, aluminum branch issues, and failed devices
• meet city officials for inspections, and leave work inspection-ready
• Work with our remodeling crews on garage conversions, additions, and tenant improvements
• Communicate clearly with the owner and homeowners: what’s wrong, what’s safe, what it costs
Must-have skills
• Strong, recent experience replacing main service panels (not just adding a breaker)
• Proven subpanel installs: feeder sizing, disconnects, grounding electrode systems, voltage drop
• Real troubleshooting ability — meter work, not parts-swapping
• Ability to read a panel, a load, and a jobsite and make a safe plan
• Clean, code-compliant workmanship (NEC + local amendments)
• Valid Arizona electrical license (or ability to work under our qualifying party if you are a strong journeyman.
• Reliable transportation, valid driver’s license, and tools for service work
• Comfortable in occupied homes and active remodel sites
Nice to have
• ROC-licensed or currently working toward it
• Experience with heat-pump water heaters, EV circuits, and garage electrical upgrades
• Ability to write simple scopes and material lists
• Bilingual English/Spanish
Schedule & pay
• Full-time, field-based, Phoenix metro
• Pay: $30–$40 per hour DOE
• Overtime on permitted changeouts and inspection days as needed
How to apply Apply on ZipRecruiter with:
1. License type and number (or “journeyman, no AZ license yet”)
2. Two recent panel-replacement or subpanel jobs you ran (address not required — just size and what you did)
3. Phone number we can reach the same day
No license mills. No “I watch YouTube.” If you can replace a panel, land a subpanel, and find a bad neutral, we want to talk.
