Careers with Gilday Renovations

About the Role

Gilday Renovations is looking for an experienced Carpenter Foreman who is prepared to excel in a high-end residential design-build environment where superb craftsmanship and project management are recognized and rewarded.

• Ensure protection of the home, property, and materials delivered to the site.
• Manage the project schedule and report  to the Project Manager 

Skills Required:

• Perform as the lead carpenter and demonstrate mastery of all skills necessary to build the project from rough carpentry through trim/finish
• Understanding of all construction phases from foundation to roof
• Expert at interpreting drawings and specifications
• Solid organization skills and ability to prioritize.
• Timely response to the requirements of project manager, clients, vendors, and subcontractors.
