E.L. Electrical Contracting has served Southeast Michigan for 27+ years, specializing in commercial new construction and renovations — offices, schools, churches, fire stations, and other community facilities. We are hiring one experienced Commercial Electrical Foreman who can take full ownership of commercial projects in the field. If you're currently running commercial work but feel under-supported, under-recognized, or buried in chaos — this may be worth a conversation.

• Company vehicle (for qualified foreman)
• Health insurance
• Paid holidays
• PTO / vacation
• 401(k)

• Local projects only — no out-of-town travel
• Mostly weekday business hours
