Job Order Detail

Description

Prairie Made Carpentry is looking to add to our small team of carpenters. Full, part-time or seasonal is available. We primarily do wood framing in residential construction, while occasionally doing interior trim, painting, insulation, siding and other carpentry tasks.

Our highest priorities with employees are ensuring safety on the jobsite, respecting boundaries and desired work/life balance, and paying competitive wages reflective of abilities.

Experience is not required, but an asset and reflected in pay. Pay ranges from $19/hr to $37/hr. Inexperienced workers are paired with the owner to receive instruction, with raises coming as fast as they can develop the skills and improve their production. Apprenticeship is an option for those who desire, but not require.

While experience is not required, this is a physically demanding job so applicants should be capable and willing to face the rigours of the job. Moving loads of materials and tools weighing 50lbs+ is a frequent occurrence. The ability to work quickly and safely will help an inexperienced individual earn wage increases quickly while they continue to develop the tool and math skills, and general knowledge for further pay increases.

Working days and hours are typically Monday-Friday, 7am-5:30pm, but vary according to the season. Days and hours can also be flexible to accommodate worker's needs, situation dependent and can be discussed. Overtime is available.

Workers having access to transportation is ideal, but accommodations can be discussed for those without, or those who rely on public transport.
