About the Role

At Crown Co., we're looking for someone who takes pride in doing things the right way. Someone who notices the details others miss. Someone who enjoys solving problems, working with their hands, and seeing a project come together because of the work they put in.

Every project is different. One week you may be remodeling a facility, the next you're building new structures or improving properties across Empire Farms. You'll work alongside people who believe in helping each other succeed, taking pride in quality craftsmanship, and enjoying the journey together. When the workday is over, you'll be surrounded by teammates who spend their time hunting, fishing, racing, cheering on their favorite teams, or making memories with their families. We work hard because we value what we're building at work—and the life we're building outside of it.

What We're Looking For

  • Takes ownership without waiting to be told
  • Finds satisfaction in quality craftsmanship
  • Enjoys learning new skills and improving every day
  • Solves problems instead of making excuses
  • Can work independently but knows how to be a great teammate
  • Shows up on time because people count on you
  • Takes pride in leaving every jobsite better than you found it
  • Believes integrity matters, even when no one is watching
  • Wants a career—not just another paycheck

Responsibilities

You'll support a wide variety of construction, remodeling, maintenance, and facility improvement projects by:

  • Demolishing and preparing work areas while protecting existing structures
  • Reading blueprints and construction drawings
  • Measuring, framing, installing, repairing, and finishing construction projects
  • Installing doors, windows, trim, cabinetry, drywall backing, and finish carpentry
  • Completing repairs and building maintenance across company facilities
  • Coordinating with project managers and teammates to keep projects moving
  • Operating hand tools, power tools, and construction equipment safely
  • Loading, organizing, and maintaining tools and materials
  • Maintaining clean, organized, and safe jobsites
  • Ensuring every project meets our standards for quality and craftsmanship

Some travel may be required depending on project needs.

Qualifications

  • 2+ years of remodeling or residential/commercial carpentry experience
  • Ability to read blueprints and shop drawings
  • Knowledge of building codes and construction methods
  • Experience with rough and finish carpentry
  • Strong problem-solving skills
  • Excellent organization and time management
  • Valid driver's license with a clean driving record

Physical Requirements

This is hands-on work that requires you to:

  • Lift and carry up to 75 pounds
  • Stand, kneel, bend, climb ladders, and work on scaffolding
  • Work indoors and outdoors in changing weather
  • Work safely at heights and in confined spaces when necessary

Our Core Values

  • Grit – We don't quit when things get tough
  • Loyalty – We have each other's backs
  • Enjoying the Journey – Work should be meaningful and rewarding
  • Integrity – We do the right thing every time
  • Positive Mindset – We focus on solutions, not excuses

The Opportunity

The best jobs don't just pay the bills—they build a better life. If you're looking for a place where your work is appreciated, where your skills continue to grow, and where you're surrounded by people who care about doing great work and living great lives, we'd like to meet you. Come build something you're proud of—with people you'll be proud to work beside.
