We are looking for an experienced and motivated Lead Carpenter to join our team. Are you the right fit? If so, you’ll enjoy the many benefits of a collaborative design build environment, from leading a team of skilled carpenters and fully vetted trade partners to having our in-house designers available to answer questions about plans when time is of the essence! Pay is competitive and based upon your experience, and the benefits package includes health insurance, paid holidays, and more.

The Lead Carpenter is charged with producing our projects on time and on budget, and is expected to consistently deliver a superior client experience and service.  He or she needs to have a thorough understanding of residential construction and have the ability to communicate effectively in a team environment.

Key Qualities/Responsibilities:

• You should have strong organizational skills.  Duties include organizing and scheduling all trades, all employees, and all material deliveries.
• You should be able to see the big picture of the project and continually communicate updates and expectations to all stakeholders and clients.  Can you command total knowledge of each project?
• You must be able to communicate effectively.  This goes beyond the requirement of face to face communication, phone calls, and emails.  Clarity of content, timing expectations, and finished results are really important. Can you get your point across?
• Can you inspire and lead the team to a zero-punch list mentality through each trade? Can you deliver our expectation of fit and finish?
• You should be able to perform labor for installation of surface protection, dust walls, light demolition, minor rough carpentry, minor drywall repair and painting, hardware and clean up on a daily basis. The Lead Carpenter Manager is expected to wear the belts approximately 50% of the time, and spend the other 50% managing the process.
• You should be comfortable with technology and open to learning; our team is organized using online scheduling, emails, spreadsheets, and shared docs.
• You must have your own transportation and a valid driver’s license.
• You should have your own hand tools; company tools are also provided.
