Spotlight Career: Journey Line Worker

Electric line workers are central to Consumers Energy's operations of delivering electricity to homes and businesses throughout our service territory. Rain, sleet, dead of night, it doesn’t matter. Our crews work hard to make sure you have safe and reliable electricity. That means keeping a close eye on 68,000 miles of electric distribution lines—enough to wrap around the world two and a half times.

Under general supervision, a journey line worker performs any duties required in the operation, maintenance and construction of the electric distribution, sub-transmission, transmission, communication lines and associated equipment. If you have all of the qualifications of a Journey Line Worker, including a certified journey card (equivalent to 4 years of experience as a line worker), we are interested in meeting you soon!

CMS Energy endeavors to make https://careers.consumersenergy.com/ accessible to any and all users. If you would like to contact us regarding the accessibility of our website or need assistance completing the application process, please contact our team at e-recruiting@cmsenergy.com. This contact information is for accommodation requests only and cannot be used to inquire about the status of applications. ACCOMMODATION NOTICE: Federal law and many state laws require employers to make accommodations to disabled applicants and employees where the accommodation does not impose an undue hardship on the employer. For those applicants seeking a position within the State of Michigan, a disabled individual needing accommodation for employment must notify the employer in writing within 182 days after the need is known or should have been known. Michigan law provides that failure of a Michigan employee to properly notify the employer will preclude any claim that the employer failed to accommodate the disabled individual. However, this does not waive an individual’s right under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, which sets no time limit for requesting an accommodation nor does it require such accommodation to be in writing.
