Carpentry Crew Lead

Are you excited about building high-quality homes and leading a young cohort of motivated carpenters? We are seeking an ambitious, team-oriented, and friendly individual to join our framing crew in a leadership role. As a carpentry crew lead, you will be an integral part of a small team building new homes, additions, and garages from foundation to exterior finish. We focus on framing, setting exterior doors and windows, and exterior trim/siding. Otter Brook Carpentry aims to provide a higher quality framing product than the market standard and fosters a strong understanding of building science by teaching our carpenters the fundamentals of water mitigation, vapor control, air tightness, and insulation. This position is best suited for someone with an interest in green building practices and the flexibility to learn new construction techniques based on the latest industry standards. Each house we frame is slightly different depending on the circumstances of the project. We often frame double-stud walls, but we also sometimes use continuous exterior insulation, Zip-R, or thermally broken studs to meet the needs of each individual project. On all our projects, we make a commitment to airtight construction, and attention to detail regarding water, air, heat, and vapor control is an absolute must.
