Emerald Builders Inc. is seeking two experienced carpenters to join our team.

This is primarily a carpentry position involving commercial renovations, framing, drywall, doors, trim, and general building repairs. Because we are a general contractor, employees may also assist with other construction-related activities depending on the needs of a project.

We are looking for well-rounded individuals who are comfortable working with their hands, solving problems, and taking responsibility for their work.

The ideal candidate should be capable of working independently when needed while also being a dependable member of a small construction team.

Job Responsibilities:

• Perform general carpentry, framing, and commercial renovation work.
• Install and repair doors, frames, hardware, trim, and other building components.
• Perform wood and metal stud framing, drywall installation, and related finish work.
• Assist with commercial tenant improvements, remodeling, and demolition.
• Complete general building repairs and maintenance-related construction tasks.
• Read and interpret basic construction drawings and project instructions.
• Measure, cut, assemble, and install construction materials accurately.
• Safely operate hand tools, power tools, and construction equipment.
• Coordinate and work alongside other trades and subcontractors.
• Maintain clean, organized, and safe job sites.
• Assist with other general construction activities as needed.

Qualifications:

• Previous professional carpentry or general construction experience required.
• Commercial construction or renovation experience preferred.
• Strong understanding of basic carpentry methods, materials, and tools.
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
• Ability to follow instructions, communicate effectively, and work as part of a team.
• Dependable attendance, a strong work ethic, and attention to detail.
• Valid driver's license and ability to meet company vehicle driving requirements.
• Ability to perform the physical requirements of construction work, with or without reasonable accommodation.

Experience with framing, drywall, doors, hardware, and general building repairs is especially valuable.

What We're Looking For:

We understand that not every carpenter has experience in every aspect of construction, and we do not expect someone to know everything.

We are looking for individuals with a solid carpentry background who are dependable, willing to learn, and take pride in producing quality work.

Our projects vary in size and complexity. Some days may involve framing or installing doors, while others may involve repairing an existing building, completing a commercial renovation, or assisting with another aspect of construction.

We appreciate employees who can adapt to different situations, think through problems, and help get the job done correctly.

Compensation & Work Schedule:

• Hourly Pay: $22.50–$30.00, depending on experience and qualifications.
• Employment: Full-time.
• Transportation: Company vehicle provided, subject to company driving requirements.
• Work Location: Commercial job sites throughout Harford County and surrounding Maryland areas.
• Company Base: Jarrettsville, Maryland.

Why Join Emerald Builders Inc.?

At Emerald Builders, you'll have the opportunity to work on a wide variety of commercial construction projects rather than performing the same repetitive tasks every day.

We offer a practical, hands-on work environment where experience, initiative, reliability, and quality workmanship are valued.

We are looking for employees interested in becoming dependable, long-term members of our construction team.

How to Apply:

Interested applicants should submit their résumé or a summary of their previous construction experience through ZipRecruiter.
