Preconstruction Manager - Multifamily Electrical

About Current Electric Group

Current Electric Group, Inc. is a licensed electrical contractor with a proven track record delivering high-quality electrical installations for single-family residential new construction. We partner with a select group of national production home builders and are known for our reliability, accountability, and fairness. As we strategically expand into the multifamily apartment market, we are looking for a seasoned professional to lead that effort from the ground up.

The Opportunity

This is a rare ground-floor opportunity to shape a new division at a growing, stable electrical contractor.

You will have the full support of company leadership and the infrastructure of an established contractor behind you. If you have deep roots in multifamily electrical preconstruction and are looking for a place where your expertise and relationships will directly build something lasting, we want to hear from you.
