If you take pride in quality work and want to be part of something meaningful, this is your opportunity! Key Responsibilities
  • Frame exterior and interior walls according to plans and layout, both in the factory and in the field. Because we have a factory, we are able to pre-fabricate walls and house components inside our factory so our schedule is rarely affected by weather.

  • Maintain a clean, safe, and organized job site. Qualifications
  • 1+ Years of residential framing and/or siding experience preferred, but if you have experience working with your hands, we can train you in our methods
  • Ability to read and interpret construction drawings.
  • Physical work is a core part of this role. Team members must be able to safely lift and move materials (up to 75 lbs), use proper lifting techniques, and work in a physically active environment.
  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation.
  • Strong attention to detail and a commitment to quality craftsmanship.
  • High school diploma or equivalent preferred (but not required) What We're Looking For
  • Team members who are adaptable and able to perform all types of carpentry tasks to support the growth of Compact Cottages and our team members.
