Project & Property, LLC is seeking a skilled and dependable Construction Foreman / Lead Carpenter to join our team in West Palm Beach and surrounding Palm Beach County areas.

This is a hands-on leadership position. We are looking for someone who can take ownership of a jobsite, coordinate subcontractors and field personnel, maintain quality and organization, and personally perform construction work when needed to keep the project moving.

This is not a supervision-only position. The right candidate is comfortable leading others while also picking up the tools and completing work themselves.

Our projects include residential renovations, remodels, property improvements, repairs, punch work, and other construction projects throughout Palm Beach County.

What You'll Do

You will be responsible for a combination of hands-on construction, jobsite leadership, quality control, and daily field coordination.

Hands-On Construction Responsibilities

You should be comfortable performing a variety of construction tasks, including:

Wood and metal framing
Demolition
Drywall installation, patching, and repairs
Interior and exterior trim
Baseboards and casing
Interior door installation and adjustments
Door and cabinet hardware installation
Vanity installation
Bathroom accessories and shelving
Blocking and backing
Minor carpentry repairs
Caulking and finish work
Punch-list work
Final adjustments and repairs
General construction tasks needed to move projects toward completion

You do not need to be a master of every trade. You do need strong general construction knowledge, solid carpentry skills, and the ability to confidently complete everyday field tasks correctly and efficiently.

Jobsite Leadership Responsibilities

You will also help manage daily field operations, including:

Lead and coordinate daily jobsite activities
Direct laborers and field personnel when assigned
Coordinate subcontractors and trades
Review plans, scopes of work, specifications, and schedules
Plan upcoming work and identify material needs before they become urgent
Keep projects moving according to schedule
Monitor subcontractor workmanship and identify deficiencies
Address field issues before they become larger problems
Coordinate deliveries and verify materials
Help prepare jobsites for inspections
Maintain safe, clean, organized, and professional jobsites
Protect existing and completed work
Take progress photos and document completed work
Maintain and complete punch lists
Communicate project progress, issues, and upcoming needs to the project team
Help bring projects through final completion and turnover

Project & Property is transitioning toward Buildertrend as our primary system for project visibility and accountability, so this position will be expected to consistently document field progress, photos, issues, and assigned tasks through our project management systems. This aligns with the company's construction workflow, where field execution, quality control, inspection readiness, material needs, and progress documentation all need clear ownership and visibility.

What We're Looking For:

We're looking for a builder and problem solver who takes ownership.

If a subcontractor is coming tomorrow, you think ahead and make sure the site is ready.

If materials are needed next week, you identify them before they stop production.

If something isn't built correctly, you notice it and address it.

If a door needs to be installed, trim needs to be finished, drywall needs to be patched, or a punch list needs to get done, you're willing and able to handle it.

The goal is not simply to complete your individual task. The goal is to keep the entire project moving toward successful completion.

Qualifications Required:

Residential construction or remodeling experience
Strong hands-on carpentry and general construction skills
Experience with framing, drywall, trim, doors, demolition, and punch work
Ability to safely operate common hand and power tools
Ability to read construction plans and scopes of work
Understanding of residential construction sequencing
Ability to coordinate subcontractors and field personnel
Strong problem-solving skills
Strong attention to detail and quality
Ability to work independently without constant supervision
Ability to prioritize multiple tasks and anticipate upcoming needs
Professional communication skills
Dependable and punctual
Valid driver's license
Reliable transportation
Smartphone capable of taking photos and using project management applications
Ability to travel to jobsites throughout West Palm Beach and Palm Beach County

Preferred Experience

Experience in any of the following is a plus:

Residential renovations and remodeling
High-end residential construction
Kitchen and bathroom renovations
Finish carpentry
Interior and exterior renovations
Punch-list and warranty work
Leading crews or running jobsites
Coordinating subcontractors
Buildertrend or similar construction management software

Compensation & Growth

Starting pay will depend on experience, construction knowledge, hands-on skill level, leadership ability, and the ability to independently complete construction scopes and manage field activities.

There is an opportunity for increased responsibility and compensation for individuals who demonstrate strong field leadership, reliability, quality workmanship, organization, and the ability to successfully manage projects and crews.

Physical Requirements

This is an active, hands-on construction position. Candidates must be able to:

Work on active construction sites
Stand and walk for extended periods
Climb ladders and stairs
Bend, kneel, and work in different construction environments
Lift and move construction materials and tools
Work indoors and outdoors in South Florida conditions
Safely operate common hand and power tools

Why Project & Property?

We're building a team where people are expected to take ownership, communicate clearly, solve problems, and take pride in the finished product.

We're looking for someone who notices the details, keeps the jobsite organized, thinks ahead, and doesn't walk past something that needs to be fixed.

If you're comfortable leading a jobsite, working alongside subcontractors, and getting on the tools yourself to get the job done, we'd like to hear from you.

Please submit your resume or a summary of your construction experience.

We'd especially like to hear about:

The types of construction and remodeling projects you've worked on
Your carpentry and hands-on construction experience
Your experience leading crews or running jobsites
Your experience coordinating subcontractors
Your availability to work throughout the West Palm Beach area
