Build Something That Matters

At ABLe, successful projects depend on strong field leadership. We’re looking for an Electrical Superintendent who knows how to turn project plans into results leading people, coordinating work, solving problems, and keeping projects moving safely and efficiently.

In this role, you’ll oversee field operations for assigned electrical construction projects, working closely with Project Managers, Foremen, General Contractors, subcontractors, and other trades to deliver quality work on schedule and within budget.

We need a hands-on leader who understands the realities of the jobsite, plans ahead, communicates clearly, and takes ownership of results. Someone who can anticipate challenges before they become delays, hold teams accountable, and create an environment where safety, craftsmanship, and teamwork come first.

At ABLe, you’ll have the opportunity to make a direct impact on project execution, team development, customer relationships, and the continued growth of our electrical division.

  • Direct daily field operations to ensure work is completed safely, efficiently, and in accordance with project plans, specifications, schedules, and budgets.
  • Lead, coach, and develop Foremen and field personnel, establishing clear expectations and accountability for performance.
  • Coordinate workforce planning, crew assignments, subcontractors, tools, equipment, and materials to meet project demands.
  • Develop and communicate weekly three-week look-ahead schedules and manpower projections.
  • Partner with Project Managers to maintain project schedules, anticipate resource needs, identify potential delays, and implement corrective actions.
  • Lead preconstruction and pre-work meetings to align teams on scope, installation methods, schedules, safety, and quality expectations.
  • Communicate project requirements, approved changes, RFIs, submittals, and specifications clearly to Foremen and field teams.
  • Participate in project meetings, address field challenges, and coordinate with General Contractors, engineers, vendors, commissioning agents, and other trades.
  • Support the development of field personnel through training, feedback, and consistent application of company procedures.

Oversee Electrical Installation & Technical Execution

  • Oversee electrical installation, troubleshooting, and related construction activities in accordance with approved drawings, specifications, applicable codes, and contract requirements.
  • Read and interpret electrical blueprints, one-line diagrams, schematics, equipment schedules, installation details, and technical documents.
  • Coordinate the installation of electrical distribution systems, panels, transformers, generators, lighting, branch circuits, grounding and bonding, equipment connections, and related infrastructure, as applicable to the project.
  • Coordinate electrical work with low-voltage systems, structured cabling, security, telecommunications, HVAC, and other building systems.
  • Identify design conflicts, constructability issues, and installation challenges early, coordinating solutions with Project Managers, engineers, vendors, and other stakeholders.
  • Coordinate inspections, testing, system verification, commissioning, startup, punch-list completion, and project turnover.
  • Ensure required inspections are properly supported by appropriately qualified personnel in accordance with applicable regulations and project requirements.
  • Maintain working knowledge of the National Electrical Code (NEC), applicable state and local requirements, and relevant industry standards.

Make Safety & Quality Non-Negotiable

  • Promote a safety-first culture and enforce applicable OSHA requirements, company safety policies, customer requirements, and jobsite procedures.
  • Ensure crews have and use appropriate personal protective equipment and follow approved safe-work practices.
  • Conduct regular jobsite reviews, identify hazards, address unsafe conditions, and follow through on corrective actions.
  • Monitor installation quality and verify work meets approved drawings, specifications, codes, and company standards.

  • Monitor work against the approved project scope and promptly communicate potential changes, delays, or cost impacts.
