Electrician Trainee

Electrician Trainee

This is where electrical experience becomes a career. As an Electrician Trainee at CMI, you'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with electricians who've spent years mastering industrial power systems — and their job is to teach you everything they know. You'll put your hands on real equipment from day one: troubleshooting electrical systems, tackling mechanical repairs, and learning what it takes to keep a transformer plant running.

This is a training role, so no prior experience is required — but if you've got some background in electrical work (industrial, commercial, or manufacturing all count), or you're coming from a solid maintenance foundation and ready to specialize, this is your way in to a trade that pays, travels, and never goes out of demand.

As you complete each phase of hands-on training, your pay progresses in scheduled steps, reaching full industrial electrician market rate within 18 months.

Key responsibilities include:

• Assist in the installation, maintenance, and repair of electrical systems and production equipment.
• Support general manufacturing maintenance activities, including preventive maintenance, mechanical repairs, and equipment upkeep across the facility.
• Learn to read and interpret blueprints, schematics, and technical manuals.
• Participate in hands-on training sessions guided by experienced electricians.
• Observe and adhere to all safety regulations and company policies.
• Support basic troubleshooting and repairs of electrical components under supervision.
• Keep the work area clean and organized, ensuring tools and equipment are properly stored.
• Document training and progress as directed by supervisors.
• Perform additional duties as assigned to support maintenance and production needs.
