Full Job Description

Role Overview

We are looking for a high-output Lead Carpenter who can run jobs, not just work on them. We are open to hiring a Lead Carpenter and an Apprentice together.

This role is for someone who:

Takes ownership of projects
Thinks ahead instead of reacting
Produces clean, high-quality work without constant oversight

You will be an on-site leader, responsible for executing projects from framing through finish, coordinating subs, and ensuring jobs move forward efficiently and profitably.

What You’ll Actually Do

Job Execution

Lead your team on day-to-day construction on residential projects (additions, garages, remodels). Typical teams consist of a leader and 1-2 helpers or apprentices.
Handle framing, layout, and finish carpentry at a high level
Read and interpret plans without hand-holding
Solve problems in the field without stopping production

Project Ownership

Keep jobs on schedule (or communicate early when they’re not)
Maintain clean, organized job sites
Track materials, tools, and job progress
Prevent rework through attention to detail

Team Leadership

Direct laborers and lower-level carpenters
Set the tone for work ethic and standards
Coordinate with subcontractors (electric, HVAC, plumbing, etc.)
Communicate clearly with project management

Profit Awareness

Work efficiently to protect labor margins
Minimize waste (materials + time)
Identify when something is going off-track early

What We’re Looking For: Non-Negotiables

5+ years of residential carpentry experience
Can independently run a job site
Strong framing + layout skills
Ability to lead people (not just work alone)
Shows up on time, every time

You’ll Do Well Here If You:

Take pride in clean, tight work
Hate redoing things
Think like an owner, not an employee
Can move fast without cutting corners
Communicate problems early instead of hiding them

You Won’t Last Here If You:

Need constant direction
Blame others when things go wrong
Work slow and call it “quality”
Avoid responsibility

Compensation Structure

We don’t just pay for time—we pay for output and reliability.

Base Pay: $35–$40/hr
Performance Bonus: $5/hr pay increase after demonstrating competence and professionalism
Growth Path: Helper/Apprentice → Lead → Site Supervisor → Project Manager

Top performers will:

Get more responsibility
Get higher-paying jobs
Be trusted to run larger projects

Typical Projects

Residential additions
Detached garages (20x20–30x40 range)
Interior remodels
Roofing & exterior work (as needed)
Commercial renovations

Why This Role Matters

Right now, the company is growing—but execution capacity is the bottleneck.

This role exists to:

Take pressure off ownership
Increase job throughput
Improve job quality and profitability

If you’re the right person, you won’t just “have a job”—you’ll become a core operator in the business.

Pay: $40.00 - $45.00 per hour

Benefits:

Flexible schedule
On-the-job training
Professional development assistance
Tools provided

Work Location: On the road
