Join a team that powers your community.
Parke County REMC is a member-owned, nonprofit electric cooperative serving over 9,000 members across six Indiana counties. Since 1937, we’ve been committed to providing safe, reliable electricity with a personal touch — and we’re looking for a skilled Journeyman Lineman to help us continue that mission.

What You’ll Do

As a Journeyman Lineman, you’ll play a key role in building, maintaining, and repairing our electric distribution system — both overhead and underground. You’ll work with a team that values safety, skill, and service, ensuring our members have the power they depend on every day.

Responsibilities include:

• Constructing, operating, and maintaining electric distribution lines and equipment
• Responding to outages and restoring power safely and efficiently

• Ensuring all work follows safety regulations and cooperative standards

This is a bargaining unit position.

What We’re Looking For

• High school diploma or equivalent
• Completion of an accredited four-year apprenticeship program
• Four years of progressive experience in electric line construction and maintenance (preferred)
• Knowledge of RUS specifications, transformers, substations, and line equipment
• Valid Indiana Class A CDL
• Strong mechanical aptitude, problem-solving skills, and safety-first mindset
• Ability to work outdoors in all conditions and meet physical job requirements
• Residency within the service area required within one year of hire
