Full Job Description

Are you someone who takes pride in being the person who makes a job site run smoothly? Do you enjoy being in the field, solving problems in real time, and seeing tangible progress every day? Are you the kind of leader who holds high standards while building strong, respectful relationships?

If you thrive in fast-paced environments, take ownership of outcomes, and care deeply about craftsmanship and client experience, this role was built with you in mind.

At Zenith Design + Build, our Lead Carpenter plays a critical role in bringing our designs to life. You will serve as the primary on-site leader for multiple residential remodeling projects, working in close partnership with our Project Managers, subcontractors, and homeowners. Your leadership ensures projects move forward with quality, clarity, and professionalism — from demolition through final punch list.

This is a highly visible, hands-on role for someone who enjoys being in the field, coordinating trades, solving issues before they become problems, and representing Zenith with excellence.

Key Responsibilities

Field Leadership & Project Execution - Serve as the primary on-site leader for assigned remodeling projects (typically 5–7 active sites), maintaining daily visibility on job progress, quality, safety, and workflow.
Subcontractor Coordination - Schedule, coordinate, and manage subcontractors across multiple active projects, building strong working relationships with trade partners grounded in trust, accountability, and clear communication.
Communication and Reporting - Provide regular field updates to Project Managers, the Construction Manager, and homeowners.
Quality Control and Client Experience - Ensure all work meets Zenith quality standards and project specifications and support a smooth, respectful, and positive client experience throughout construction.

Qualifications

5+ years of experience in residential construction or remodeling
3+ years of experience coordinating subcontractors
Strong understanding of construction sequencing and jobsite logistics
Proven problem-solving and decision-making skills
Strong verbal communication and interpersonal skills
Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously
Comfortable using basic technology for communication and reporting

Ideal Background

This role is a great fit for someone with experience as a:

Residential remodeling superintendent
Lead carpenter or foreman ready to step into leadership
Field operations coordinator managing multiple trades

Apply today to take ownership in a role where your leadership directly shapes project outcomes, client experience, and the quality of work we deliver every day.

Pay: From $70,000.00 per year

Benefits:

401(k)
Dental insurance
Health insurance
