JOB SUMMARY
We're looking for a skilled, dependable Licensed Electrician to join the Cline's team and take ownership of the electrical side of our HVAC installations and service work.

This role is ideal for an electrician who takes pride in clean, code-compliant work, wants variety in their day, and is looking to plant roots with a stable, growing, locally and veteran owned company that genuinely invests in its people.
