Experienced Carpenter

Do you love to work with your hands, solve problems, and see the tangible results of your work at the end of the day? 

We are looking for a full-time Carpenter with 5+years of building experience. If you're motivated by quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and building science, we'd love to hear from you. 

We value diversity in our crew and encourage people of color, women, and LGBTQ carpenters to apply. Compensation range is $28-$40/hr to start (pay based on experience and abilities), plus paid holidays and vacation, health insurance, retirement benefits, family leave, life insurance, short and long-term disability insurance, and a continued education stipend.

We feel it is important that your work life does not conflict with your life outside of work. Just as we hope you will be invested in our jobs and company mission, we will prioritize supporting your job aspirations and work life balance. We have a diverse crew with very little turnover, we laugh a lot, and enjoy our work. Most of our work is within a 45 minute drive of Bethel, ME.

Job Requirements:

  2. Strong experience with carpentry tasks including: framing, installation of doors and windows, trim, siding, flooring, cabinets, etc. 

  3. Able to read plans, understand and think critically about building science and envelope details, and conceptualize a task from start to finish.
