Most electricians are looking for a job. We're looking for someone who can't work for people who don't care how it's done. Plesh Electric has been doing electrical work in New Jersey for 30 years. Residential and commercial — panels, service upgrades, generator installations, rewires, and new construction. We built our reputation the same way every time: show up when we say we will, do the work right, leave the site clean. We're growing — multiple crews, a generator division that's expanding, a $5M target we're building toward — and we need another electrician who holds themselves to the same standard. We're not hiring for a position. We're recruiting a craftsman who wants to run jobs, not just work them. THE PAY $25–$38/hour based on experience. Where you start depends on what you bring. Where you land depends on how you perform. WHAT THE WORK ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE This job involves physical work — bending conduit in cold weather, pulling wire in attics and crawl spaces, lifting equipment, and standing on ladders for hours. If you need someone to tell you how to hold yourself to a standard, this isn't for you. If you already hold yourself to one and you're tired of working for people who don't, keep reading. WHO BELONGS HERE Craftsmanship is your identity, not your job description. You communicate before someone has to chase you. You see the safety decision embedded in every installation. You want to grow, and you understand that the company's growth and your growth are the same thing.
