In these varied and diverse roles you will be responsible for performing multiple, varied tasks required for residential construction of new homes. As Leading Hand, you will in addition oversee responsibility for a small team of 3 Carpenters and an Apprentice. This is an exciting opportunity for an individual seeking variety in their work, who enjoys being challenged  and is looking to take that next step in their career! 

Some of your key duties will include, but may not be limited to:
