Senior Structured Cabling Technician (NB)

Job Title: Senior Structured Cabling Technician
Location: Onsite at project sites, Saint John, NB and Moncton, NB
Position Type: Permanent, full-time

About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Senior Structured Cabling Technician to lead cabling installations for a fast-growing technology integrator in the Maritimes. Our client designs and installs communications cabling, security and audio-visual systems for major public sector projects (hospitals, schools and government) and for large marine and defence-sector mandates.
This role is responsible for leading cabling installs from start to finish: running the crew, managing the schedule, and keeping customers informed and confident. Demand is growing faster than the team, so you’ll play a key part in helping the company deliver consistently and on time.

This is not an entry-level installer role. We are looking for a hands-on lead who can certify copper and fibre on their own, guide a crew, and own the quality of every job.

What You’ll Do
Installation Leadership
Lead project installations and manage team members, schedules and customer expectations.
Keep jobs on time and on budget, and troubleshoot complex issues on site.
Coordinate and mentor technicians and verify completed work.
Cabling Installation & Service
Install, repair and upgrade copper and fibre (multimode and single mode) cable infrastructure.
Terminate, splice, test and certify cabling.
Set up telecom frames, pathways (e.g. J-hooks) and headend racking.
Install low-voltage cabling for security, AV and building systems.
Perform preventive maintenance and attend service calls.
Documentation & Customer Work
Complete test results, as-built drawings and O&M manuals.
Read drawings, conduct site surveys and liaise with customers.
Prepare basic estimates for time-and-materials work.

Required Qualifications
5+ years of structured cabling experience on commercial, enterprise, government or industrial projects.
Supervisory or team-lead experience, including both people and project management.
Hands-on experience terminating, splicing, testing and certifying copper and fibre.
Strong troubleshooting skills.
Valid driver’s licence and a clean driver’s abstract.
Ability to pass a criminal record check.
Willingness to travel and to work overtime, weekends and emergency call-outs as needed.

Technical Background Required
Candidates should have strong hands-on experience with:
Copper and fibre (multimode and single mode) installation
Fibre splicing and cable testing/certification
Telecom rooms, frames, pathways and headend racking
Low-voltage infrastructure for security, AV and building systems
Reading drawings and producing as-built documentation

Preferred Qualifications
BICSI CCS or Journeyman Cabling Technician accreditation.
Experience with Panduit, Belden or Corning systems.
Experience on healthcare, education, government or marine/industrial projects.

What We Offer
50% employer-paid group benefits (health, dental, vision and insurance) and EFAP
Group RRSP with company matching
Paid travel and accommodation, with meal allowances
Project-based hours (typically 35–45 a week) with paid overtime
A senior lead role with a young, growing team

What Success Looks Like
Installs are delivered on schedule and to a high standard.
Every job is tested, certified and documented before closeout.
Customers have confidence in the crew and the timeline.
Technicians on your crew grow their skills.

Ideal Candidate Profile
We’re looking for a senior cabling technician who has led crews on commercial or institutional projects and takes pride in clean, certified work. The ideal candidate is comfortable working independently, communicates well with customers, and wants to grow with a company that’s expanding across the Maritimes.
