This is a hands-on field position for someone who considers themselves a professional tradesman—not simply a construction laborer.

• Wood framing for walls, floors, roofs, additions, and other structures
• Install doors, windows, blocking, and miscellaneous framing
• Perform interior and exterior trim carpentry
• Install cabinets, hardware, and other finish components

• Ability to read and understand basic construction plans and drawings
• Knowledge of proper construction methods and building practices
• Ability to work independently and complete assigned work without constant supervision
• Comfortable working both indoors and outdoors in active construction environments
• Valid driver's license and dependable transportation
• Reliable, punctual, professional, and safety-conscious
• Must be willing to perform general construction work outside of carpentry when needed

What We're Looking For

We are looking for a true construction tradesman who understands how buildings go together and takes pride in doing things correctly.

The right candidate should be able to walk onto a jobsite, understand the task, determine what tools and materials are needed, and complete quality work efficiently.

We especially value someone who is versatile. One day may involve framing an addition, another may involve installing doors or trim, completing a renovation, repairing an existing structure, or helping another crew move a project forward.

We want employees who take ownership of their work, protect the customer's property, maintain a professional jobsite, and care about the quality of the finished product.
