Overview

S3 General Construction is seeking an experienced, dependable, and skilled Construction Foreman / Lead Construction Worker to join our growing team.

We are looking for a hands-on leader who can supervise a small crew, coordinate daily jobsite activities, and actively perform construction work alongside other employees.

This is a working foreman position, not a management-only role. The ideal candidate is an experienced construction professional who can lead by example, solve problems independently, and perform a variety of residential and commercial construction tasks without constant supervision.

We value practical experience, strong work ethic, craftsmanship, reliability, and the ability to get the job done correctly and efficiently.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and work alongside construction crews on residential and commercial projects.
• Assign daily tasks and ensure employees understand their responsibilities.
• Perform hands-on construction work, including carpentry, framing, drywall, flooring, trim, repairs, remodeling, and general construction.
• Read and interpret basic blueprints, measurements, and work instructions.
• Identify and resolve routine construction problems without unnecessary delays.
• Ensure projects are completed safely, efficiently, and to company quality standards.
• Monitor daily work progress and communicate updates to management.
• Identify needed materials, tools, and equipment and coordinate requests with the office.
• Maintain accurate employee time records and jobsite documentation.
• Coordinate with subcontractors and other trades when necessary.
• Maintain clean, organized, and safe jobsites.
• Help train less-experienced employees and ensure work is completed properly.

Qualifications

Required:

• 5+ years of hands-on construction experience preferred, with substantial experience in residential or commercial construction.
• Strong working knowledge of general construction methods, materials, and tools.
• Ability to perform skilled construction tasks independently.
• Experience directing or supervising other workers, or demonstrated ability to serve as a crew lead.
• Proficiency with power tools, hand tools, and construction equipment.
• Ability to measure accurately, troubleshoot problems, and complete repairs efficiently.
• Reliable transportation and a valid driver's license.
• Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to perform physical construction work, including lifting materials, climbing ladders, and working outdoors.

Preferred:

• Experience in multiple construction trades.
• Strong carpentry, framing, remodeling, and finish-work skills.
• Experience coordinating subcontractors and managing daily jobsite activities.
• Ability to identify small repairs and complete them without bringing in additional personnel.
• Familiarity with construction safety practices and OSHA standards.
• Experience working on multiple projects or coordinating small crews.

Compensation and Opportunities

• $22.00 to $32.00 per hour, depending on experience, skills, and leadership ability.
• Full-time employment.
• Opportunity for professional growth and increased responsibility.
• Variety of residential and commercial construction projects.
• Potential relocation assistance for the right candidate, discussed individually based on experience, qualifications, and company needs.

What We're Looking For -

• We want someone who takes ownership of their work, leads by example, and is just as comfortable swinging a hammer as directing a crew.
• The right person will recognize what needs to be done, communicate effectively with management, and help keep projects moving without requiring constant oversight.
• If you are an experienced construction worker who takes pride in quality craftsmanship and has the ability to lead others, we encourage you to apply.
