Full job description

Job Description

Powell Contracting is a North Vancouver-based residential construction company specializing in high-quality renovations and custom builds across the North Shore and Vancouver. We are built on a foundation of craftsmanship, clear communication, and accountability.

We are looking for a Lead Carpenter with site supervision experience who is equally comfortable with a tool in hand and running a crew. This is a 60% supervision / 40% hands-on carpentry role. You will be on site every day, working alongside your team, coordinating trades, managing material flow, and ensuring quality craftsmanship.

The Role

You will work closely with our Project Manager. The PM handles scheduling trades, coordinating material deliveries, managing budgets, and office coordination. Your job is to lead the work on the ground—ensuring subcontractors execute their scope correctly, stay on sequence, and maintain quality standards. You'll communicate daily with the PM to flag upcoming needs, trade issues, or delays.

Key Responsibilities

On-Site Leadership & Coordination

Work alongside your crew daily, leading by example and maintaining high standards of workmanship
Coordinate carpenters, labourers, and subcontractors across all phases of residential construction
Manage subcontractors on-site: hold them to agreed scope, schedule, and quality standards
Sequence trades to keep work moving efficiently with no delays
Inspect work at each stage and confirm it meets specification
Run daily toolbox meetings to brief the crew and set the day's plan
Maintain a safe, clean, and organized job site at all times

Daily Communication with Project Manager

Check in with the PM daily with clear updates on progress, upcoming needs, and issues
Flag when subs need to be scheduled, materials are required, or trade issues arise
Submit daily site logs and photos on time, every day
Communicate scope changes, delays, or concerns to the PM promptly
Participate in weekly production meetings

Subcontractor & Client Relations

Direct subcontractors on-site to ensure they stay on schedule and meet standards
Conduct client site visits professionally; escalate anything beyond your scope to the PM
Maintain solid working relationships with trades and suppliers

Documentation & Site Administration

Prepare and submit change order requests, RFIs, and site documentation accurately and on time
Manage material deliveries and flag shortages or delays to the PM immediately
Keep site records up to date to support budget tracking and project reporting

Required Qualifications

Essential:

Minimum 8 years of progressive experience in residential construction
Demonstrated hands-on carpentry skills (framing, formwork, custom builds, renovations, finishing)
Proven experience leading residential job sites as a working lead carpenter
Strong knowledge of residential construction methods, trade sequencing, and BC Building Code requirements
Knowledge of WorkSafe BC safety requirements and best practices
Reliable, consistent communication skills
Ability to manage site documentation and project coordination
Comfort with project management software and standard construction documentation tools
Valid BC driver's license

Preferred:

Experience mentoring junior carpenters or labourers
Familiarity with JobTread or CompanyCAM construction management software

What This Role Is

A hands-on leadership position requiring daily presence on-site
A role where you work directly with your crew while coordinating subcontractors
A position requiring consistent daily communication with the Project Manager
A role focused on residential construction (renovations, custom builds, multi-family residential)

Conditions of Employment

Must be able to work full-time, in-person on North Shore and Vancouver job sites
Must be willing to adapt to changing site conditions and project schedules
Must maintain a valid driver's license throughout employment

What We Offer

$90,000–$105,000 per year, based on experience and qualifications
Extended health, dental, and vision coverage (following probationary period)
10 days paid vacation plus all BC statutory holidays
Direct access to ownership and real growth opportunity with the company
Stable, full-time employment with a company invested in your long-term success

Pay: $90,000.00-$105,000.00 per year
