**Workplace:** on_site

## Description

We are looking for a hands-on Working Foreman to lead and work alongside field crews on residential and multifamily additions, renovations, new homes, and select commercial projects in a jobsite-based construction environment. AlphaHire is recruiting on behalf of a client, a long-established regional builder serving the Lancaster, PA area. This role is responsible for field execution, crew leadership, and daily jobsite progress rather than office-based project management. The position is ideal for a working foreman who can take ownership in the field while contributing directly to high-quality construction work.

**Responsibilities**

-   Lead and work alongside field crews on active residential, multifamily, renovation, addition, new-home, and light commercial construction projects
-   Drive daily jobsite execution by keeping crews productive, materials organized, and project work moving according to plan
-   Read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, scopes of work, and field instructions to guide accurate installation
-   Oversee carpentry and general construction activities while maintaining quality, safety, and workmanship standards
-   Communicate jobsite needs, schedule updates, and project issues clearly with company leadership, subcontractors, and field team members
-   Support project starts, daily site setup, inspections, punch work, and closeout activities as needed
-   Identify field problems early and help resolve construction issues without unnecessary delays
-   Travel to job sites generally within about one hour of the Lancaster, PA area

## Requirements

-   5+ years of experience in a working foreman, construction foreman, carpenter foreman, lead carpenter, or similar hands-on field leadership role
-   Experience with residential construction, multifamily renovations, additions, remodeling, new homes, or small commercial projects
-   Strong hands-on carpentry or general construction background with the ability to lead from the field
-   Ability to read construction drawings, understand scopes of work, and guide crews through daily jobsite tasks
-   Must have direct field leadership experience, not only project coordination or office-based project management experience
-   Must be comfortable working full-time on jobsites with no remote, hybrid, or office-based component
-   Ability to reliably travel to Lancaster-area job sites, typically within about one hour of Lancaster, PA

## Benefits

Compensation: Approximately $80,000-$90,000 total compensation, including bonus and profit sharing.

Benefits may include health insurance, retirement plan options, paid time off, and other company-sponsored programs.
