Journeyman Electrician – Iowa License or Reciprocity Eligible

Summit Service Solutions exists to put skilled tradespeople on work that lasts—and to treat them like the professionals they are. For close to a decade, we’ve staffed commercial and industrial electrical work across The United States. As a Journeyman Electrician you’ll own first-shift, long-term installs, upgrades, and troubleshooting that keep projects on schedule and plants running. Your craft, your tools, your standards—backed by a team that values safety and integrity.

Performance Objectives

Install EMT, rigid, IMC, and flex conduit, panels, lighting, and equipment so systems pass inspection the first time and meet NEC.
Read prints, one-lines, and specs; layout and bend accurate conduit runs that coordinate with other trades without rework.
Pull, terminate, and test feeders and branch circuits; verify voltage, rotation, and load so equipment commissions without delay.
Troubleshoot faults and restore power or production quickly, documenting repairs that hold up under audit.
Keep the work area clean, follow OSHA and LOTO every day, and leave the site safer than you found it.

License Requirement:

Must hold a valid Iowa electrical license or a qualifying electrical license from one of the following reciprocal states:

AK • AR • CO • MN • MT • NE • NH • ND • OK • SD • TX • WI • WY

Out-of-state electricians are encouraged to apply. Iowa offers electrical license reciprocity with these states, subject to Iowa licensing requirements.
