Lead Exceptional Outdoor Projects from Start to Finish
Our client is a growing design-build company specializing in premium outdoor living and wellness environments. They create custom backyard spaces that combine craftsmanship, functionality, and lifestyle, delivering high-end projects that transform how homeowners enjoy their properties.
They are seeking an experienced "Backyard Wellness Foreman" to lead construction projects from excavation through final handoff. This is an opportunity for a skilled leader who takes pride in quality workmanship, enjoys mentoring crews, and values delivering an outstanding client experience.
The Opportunity
This role goes beyond traditional landscaping. You'll oversee the construction of complete outdoor living environments that may include:
Custom pools and spas
Outdoor kitchens and entertainment areas
Saunas and wellness features
Pool houses and accessory structures
Hardscaping, paver installations, and landscape enhancements
Full backyard transformations
As the Foreman, you will be responsible for leading daily site operations, coordinating trades, managing crews, and ensuring projects are completed safely, efficiently, and to the highest standards.
Key Responsibilities
Site Leadership
Direct and oversee day-to-day construction activities on assigned projects
Manage project sequencing, scheduling, quality control, and site safety
Interpret plans and specifications while identifying and resolving field challenges

Client Experience
Serve as the primary on-site contact for homeowners
Provide regular updates and maintain professional communication throughout the project
Address day-to-day questions while escalating scope or budget changes to project management
Year-Round Employment
Unlike many seasonal construction and landscaping companies, this opportunity offers stable, year-round employment.
During peak construction months, you'll lead outdoor wellness and backyard transformation projects. During the winter season, you'll transition into indoor construction work involving custom accessory buildings and related projects, allowing for continuous employment and income throughout the year.

Comprehensive health benefits
Stable, year-round employment
Opportunities for professional growth and skill development
A collaborative team environment that values craftsmanship and innovation
Involvement in unique, high-end residential projects
Direct access to leadership and meaningful input into operations and project execution
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
This is a chance to join a company operating in one of the fastest-growing segments of the residential construction market: outdoor wellness and lifestyle spaces. The projects are unique, the standards are high, and the work directly impacts how clients enjoy their homes and their lives.
If you're a hands-on construction leader who takes pride in building exceptional spaces and leading high-performing teams, we'd like to hear from you.
