Lead Carpenter - Remodeling

Nelson Builders Holland, Michigan, United States

About this position

Nelson Builders is hiring a Lead Carpenter – someone who knows how to run a clean, organized job site and genuinely loves the craft. If you're a skilled carpenter who wants to guide residential remodeling projects from start to finish, and you take real ownership of the work you put your name on, we want to meet you.

Day to day, you'll set the pace on the job site: doing the hands‑on carpentry yourself, keeping each project moving smoothly, and making sure things run right from the first day of demo to the final walkthrough. If you believe in doing the job correctly the first time, like helping newer carpenters grow, and want a company that's just as invested in its people as its projects, this is the role for you.

Everything we build comes back to four values – excellence, initiative, trustworthiness, and caring for others – and we're looking for a Lead Carpenter who brings those to the job site every single day.
