Job Overview

Patriot Contracting LLC is hiring a Field Electrical Superintendent to lead our commercial electrical field operation across active projects in Northern Virginia and Washington, DC.


This is not a single-project superintendent position. You will oversee manpower across active jobs, manage and hold foremen accountable, and take ownership of whether electrical work is completed safely, on schedule, and within the labor margin we bid.


This is a strong opportunity for an experienced commercial electrical leader who can work independently, make sound field decisions, and lead people without requiring daily supervision. You will also oversee the service side of the electrical operation, including dispatch, customer relationships, and service calls when capacity allows.


Who We Are

We are a close-knit team where your contributions matter, your growth is supported, and your leadership is encouraged. Many team members have been with us for over 10–20 years—a testament to our culture of loyalty, mentorship, and opportunity.


As we continue to grow, we are looking for a capable Field Electrical Superintendent who can bring leadership, accountability, and strong commercial electrical experience to our field operation. Learn more at www.patriot-contracting.com.

  • Review commercial drawing sets and identify conflicts before installation.
  • Coordinate with project managers, general contractors, suppliers, inspectors, and field teams.
  • Ensure electrical work is completed safely, on schedule, and to company quality standards.
  • Address jobsite issues, schedule conflicts, and coordination concerns directly with general contractors and project teams.
  • Support hiring, development, discipline, and performance management of field employees.
  • Oversee service dispatch and customer relationships.
  • Perform service calls when needed and when capacity allows.
  • Participate in internal training and development programs to support continued leadership growth.


Qualifications

  • 7 years of commercial electrical experience.
  • 3 years of experience running multiple crews or projects at one time.
  • Active Virginia Journeyman Electrician license.

  • Experience managing labor hours against budget and correcting slipping jobs.
  • Strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to work independently and make decisions without daily supervision.
  • Experience working with multiple general contractors is preferred.
  • Commercial office, restaurant, automotive, healthcare, interior tenant improvement, or base-building experience is preferred.
