If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to build a career in the electrical trade—or you’re considering becoming an electrician—this behind-the-scenes look at Barts Electric, a national electrical construction contractor, offers real insight into the opportunities and growth waiting for you.

In the featured video, one of our journeyman electricians shares his experience working on major projects, developing new skills, and advancing quickly in the industry. For anyone interested in the electrical field, his journey is a powerful example of how dedication, hands-on experience, and the right company can help you build a successful career from the ground up.

Starting With No Experience and Growing Into Leadership

One of the most inspiring parts of his story is how it began—with no experience in the trade and no formal trade school background.
Despite that, his hard work and willingness to learn helped him quickly move forward:

• By the end of his second year, he was already running his own project.

• He learned through real-world experience on job sites across the country.

• Experienced electricians and leaders at Barts Electric played a major role in helping him grow.

This highlights something we strongly believe at Barts Electric:

If you show up, work hard, and stay committed, you can build an incredible career here—regardless of where you start.

Hands-On Learning Through Major Projects

Barts Electric takes on complex, large-scale projects nationwide, giving team members the chance to learn advanced skills early in their careers.

In the video, our journeyman electrician talks about working on:

• The Vandenberg project, a major job filled with learning opportunities

• A hospital remodel, where he strengthened both technical electrical skills and leadership abilities

• The Colby project, where he is helping complete one-line work, equipment connections, and finish-out stages

These projects not only challenge our teams but also prepare them for leadership roles and higher-level responsibilities.

A Team That Invests in You

The electrician credits much of his success to the experienced professionals who mentored him—people like Brian Lyn, among others, who passed on their knowledge and helped him grow into the electrician and manager he is today.

This culture of teamwork and mentorship is what sets Barts Electric apart. Our crews support each other, build each other up, and ensure that everyone—apprentice or journeyman—has the tools they need to succeed.
