About New Edge Electrical
New Edge Electrical is a growing electrical contractor proudly serving the Lower Mainland. We specialize in industrial, commercial, and residential projects — from ground-up construction to complex retrofit and fit-out work. Our reputation is built on quality craftsmanship, rigorous safety standards, and long-standing relationships with general contractors and owners across Metro Vancouver.
We’re a tight-knit, professional team that takes our work seriously — and takes care of the people who do it. Experienced tradespeople here are given real responsibility, supported with the tools they need, and recognized for the impact they make.
The Role

We’re looking for someone energetic and detail-oriented whose leadership drives project success while fostering a culture of quality on every site.
