Electrician Ii

Located in the heart of New York's beautiful and historic mid-Hudson Valley, just 90 minutes north of New York City, Dutchess Community College (DCC) is one of 64 colleges within the State University of New York, the largest comprehensive public higher education system in the country.

DCC's strategic direction is guided by four lenses through which we view our work:
Students. Learning. Community. Growth. We are committed to respecting individuality, embracing diversity, being "student-ready," partnering with and serving our community inclusively. The College welcomes and seeks to grow pools of prospective employees who share and are anxious to support the institution's core values:
Excellence. Collaboration. Engagement. Equity. Innovation.

This is an advanced technical and working supervisory position responsible for the design, layout, installation, repair, and evaluation of electrical power systems and equipment. The class differs from that of Electrician I by virtue of supervisory duties and responsibility for planning, coordinating and instructing in large projects. Work is performed under the general supervision of an administrative employee with considerable leeway for planning and carrying out assignments.

Supervision is exercised over assigned employees. Employees are required to report to work as needed to cover emergency situations and to participate in snow and ice control activities.
