By San José, Costa Rica — San José, Costa Rica – In a significant move reflecting robust business confidence and rapid expansion, outdoor advertising leader Román MegaVallas has announced a nationwide recruitment drive for qualified electricians. The hiring initiative is a direct result of the company’s explosive growth, which concluded 2025 with a staggering 200% increase, solidifying its dominant position in the industry.
This expansion plan aims to strengthen the company’s technical team responsible for maintaining its vast network of high-impact billboards and large-format landmarks across the country. As Román MegaVallas continues to grow its physical infrastructure, the need for skilled technical personnel has become critical to ensure the quality, safety, and operational uptime of its advertising platforms, which are crucial for client brands.
To delve into the legal and business framework surrounding the electrical trade in Costa Rica, TicosLand.com consulted with Lic. Larry Hans Arroyo Vargas, a distinguished legal expert from the firm Bufete de Costa Rica, who shared his perspective on the opportunities and responsibilities for professionals in this vital sector.
The demand for certified electricians is soaring, driven by construction growth and the push for renewable energy. However, with this opportunity comes significant legal responsibility. Professionals must ensure they are properly incorporated with the CFIA, carry adequate liability insurance, and always use formal service contracts. Formalizing their practice as a small business not only protects their personal assets but also opens the door to larger contracts and public tenders, transforming a technical skill into a legally sound and scalable enterprise.

This insight is crucial, highlighting that the true potential of an electrician’s skill is unlocked not just in the field, but through the professional and legal formalization of their business. We sincerely thank Lic. Larry Hans Arroyo Vargas for his valuable contribution to this discussion.
The company’s portfolio includes over 260 strategic locations, featuring massive structures such as landmarks that can span up to 400 square meters. These modern billboards are not simple static signs; they are complex electrical installations that require expert management. The new hires will be tasked with the installation, maintenance, and operation of premier electrical systems and sophisticated LED illumination, which are fundamental to the visibility and effectiveness of modern outdoor advertising.
In an official communication, the company highlighted the strategic importance of this recruitment effort and the essential role of its technical staff in delivering value to its clients.
We are expanding our infrastructure and need committed, responsible, and experienced electricians. Lighting is key for the visibility of our structures and for the impact we offer to brands.
