Apprentice Electrician

Electrical Apprentice – Residential, Commercial, Marine & Industrial

MarTerra Electrical – Marine & Land
St. John’s / Avalon Peninsula, NL

MarTerra Electrical is looking for motivated Electrical Apprentices interested in developing experience across multiple areas of the electrical trade.

Unlike a position focused exclusively on construction, apprentices with MarTerra may have opportunities to gain experience in residential, commercial, marine and industrial electrical work.

You May Gain Experience With

• Residential wiring and service work
• Commercial electrical installations
• Service upgrades and renovations
• Electrical troubleshooting
• Motors and motor controls
• 600 V equipment

Who We're Looking For

• Registered electrical apprentice or eligible to register

• Reliable transportation
• Strong work ethic and willingness to learn
• Good mechanical aptitude
• Comfortable working with tools and electrical equipment
• Safety-conscious and dependable
• Willingness to work in different environments, including vessels, industrial facilities, commercial buildings and residential properties

Previous marine, industrial, mechanical or construction experience is an asset but is not required.

We are particularly interested in apprentices who want to understand how electrical systems work and how to troubleshoot them, rather than only learning installation work.

What We Offer

• Competitive apprentice wages based on level and experience
• Broad exposure to multiple areas of the electrical trade
• Hands-on troubleshooting experience
• Opportunity to work directly with experienced journeyperson electricians
• Marine and industrial experience that can be difficult to obtain through traditional construction positions
• Opportunities for additional technical training
• Opportunity to develop into a long-term journeyperson with MarTerra

If you're motivated, dependable and want to build a broad electrical skill set, we'd like to hear from you.
