Residential Service Electrician

Location: Roanoke, VA

Work With Your Handz is partnering with a well-established, premier residential home service provider serving Roanoke and surrounding communities since 1995.

As part of their ongoing strategic growth, this company is seeking an experienced, growth-minded Residential Service Electrician to take ownership of service calls and help elevate their residential electrical division.

The Opportunity

As a Residential Service Electrician, you will run residential service, diagnostic, and installation calls across the greater Roanoke Valley. You will dispatch directly from home most mornings in a fully stocked, modern take-home vehicle equipped with a company gas card.

Responsibilities and Expectations

  • Diagnose, troubleshoot, repair, and maintain residential electrical systems, circuits, breakers, lighting, generators, and distribution equipment in accordance with local safety and trade standards.

  • Execute hands-on installations and system replacements following closed sales, including panel replacements, subpanels, whole-home surge protection, EV chargers, and service upgrades.

  • Perform comprehensive home electrical safety evaluations, diagnose homeowner pain points, and collaborate with the in-house Master Electrician to review and close high-ticket scopes.

  • Educate homeowners clearly and professionally on their electrical system health, safety hazards, and available repair/upgrade options.

  • Utilize ServiceTitan on company-provided mobile devices to manage daily routes, document job photos, record time, and update customer records.

  • Maintain a clean, organized, fully inventoried take-home truck, following established company safety standards, OSHA rules, and personal protective equipment (PPE) guidelines.

Requirements

  • Proven hands-on experience troubleshooting, diagnosing, servicing, and installing residential electrical systems (panel replacements, circuit diagnostics, service changeouts).

  • Specific individual trade licenses (Journeyman/Master) are welcomed but not strictly required, as qualified technicians work under the company’s master licensing.

  • Strong verbal communication skills, self-confidence in professional customer environments, and comfort presenting premium solutions and high-ticket pricing.

  • Familiarity with ServiceTitan or similar digital dispatch platforms is preferred (paid hands-on training provided).

  • Eagerness to expand skills into light commercial work and participate in cross-trade exposure.

  • Valid driver’s license with a clean, insurable driving record, ability to pass a background check and drug screen, and authorization to work in the U.S. (Open to in-state Virginia candidates willing to relocate to the Roanoke area).

Compensation & Benefits

  • Top-of-Market Hourly Base: $25.00 to $35.00 per hour (paid weekly every Friday).

  • Earn commission on net sales on turned-over and closed jobs, giving top performers a realistic path to $100,000+ annually.

  • Comprehensive medical coverage with a free employee-only option, plus dental, vision, and flexible spending accounts (FSA).

  • 401(k) retirement savings plan with company match (eligible after 1 year of service).

  • Paid Time Off: 2 weeks of starting paid vacation (PTO), 6 paid major holidays, plus your birthday off with pay (after 1 year).

  • Modern, fully stocked company truck, company gas card, uniform program, and primary dispatch directly from home.

  • Direct, paid hands-on field and software training led by an in-house Master Electrician.

 

The base compensation for this position is expected to range between $25.00 – $35.00 per hour. This range is a good-faith estimate, based on the qualifications necessary for the position, including experience, training, and other considerations permitted by law. Factors that may be used when making an offer may include a candidate’s skills, experience, the expected quality and quantity of work, and internal pay alignment, as needed.

We are an equal opportunity employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity or any other characteristic protected by law.

Employee(s) will be required to follow any other job-related instructions and to perform any other job-related duties requested by any person authorized to give instructions or assignments.
