Job Description

Ready to build work you’re actually proud to put your name on?

We’re a high-end custom cabinetry and finish carpentry company based in Newburyport, and we’re growing fast. We’re not doing cookie-cutter work—we’re building detailed, custom pieces that require skill, precision, and pride.

We’ve got more projects than we can handle, and we’re looking for a skilled carpenter who knows their way around a shop and wants to be part of a tight, high-performing team.

This is not a punch-the-clock, go-through-the-motions kind of job. This is for someone who cares about craftsmanship, wants to grow, and is ready to take ownership of their work.

What You’ll Be Doing

● Building and installing high-end custom cabinetry and finish carpentry projects

● Reading and executing plans, drawings, and specifications accurately

● Operating woodworking machinery and hand tools safely and efficiently

● Managing projects or sections of builds from start to finish

● Collaborating with the team to hit deadlines without sacrificing quality

● Maintaining a clean, organized, and professional workspace

● Troubleshooting issues on the fly and finding solutions (not problems)

You’ll Thrive Here If You

● Take pride in your work and don’t cut corners

● Show up on time, ready to go—no babysitting required

● Can work independently but also be part of a team

● Have strong attention to detail (you notice what others miss)

● Want to keep leveling up your skills and take on more responsibility

● Care about building something long-term, not just collecting a paycheck

Perks & Growth

● Competitive pay based on skill and experience

● Overtime opportunities available

● Consistent, stable work

● Opportunity to grow into a lead carpenter or shop foreman role

● Work with high-quality materials, modern equipment, and a team that takes pride in what they build

● Direct access to ownership that actually invests in your growth

Requirements

● 2+ years of carpentry, cabinetry, or finish work experience preferred

● Strong understanding of tools, materials, and woodworking techniques

● Ability to read plans and execute with precision

● Ability to lift 50+ lbs and be on your feet throughout the day

● Reliable transportation to/from our shop in Newburyport

● Valid Driver’s License (Required)

● Positive attitude, strong work ethic, and attention to detail

The Bottom Line

We’re not looking for just anyone—we’re looking for someone who takes this trade seriously.

If you’re skilled, reliable, and want to be part of a company that’s growing and building high-quality work every day, this is a real opportunity.

If that’s you, apply.
