Electrical Supervisor

An Electrical Supervisor oversees the creation of electrical circuits and systems in a range of settings. You’ll supervise a team of electrical workers as they design and set up systems for use in telecommunications, signalling and power networks. Electrical Supervisors may also organise maintenance on existing systems. You might determine system requirements, be part of the design process and work with colleagues to build circuit systems.

Electrical Supervisors should have good leadership skills and be able to communicate well with a team. It’s important that you are organised and can deliver projects within deadlines. Electrical Supervisors need to have excellent attention to detail and strong problem solving abilities.
