Experience Without Limits Come shape the future of brand experience.
At Jack Morton, we design and build head-turning, smile-inducing, impact-driving brand experiences that redefine what experiential marketing can achieve. We help our clients unlock the full value of experiences by turning bold ideas into meaningful connections.
That takes a team that’s bold, curious, and acts as one. We build on each other’s ideas, challenge conventions, and show up for one another every day. Here, you’ll do your best work, grow quickly, and partner across clients, disciplines, and global teams to bring new ideas to life.
This is a place where curiosity drives what’s next, boldness raises the bar, and every win is shared. Where ownership is expected, egos are left at the door, and the work reflects the passion and talent of the people behind it.
Experience without limits – in your work, your growth, and your impact.
Lead Carpenter – Custom Exhibits & Experiential Events Build the pieces people remember.
If you’re the kind of carpenter who looks at a set of drawings and immediately starts thinking about how to build it better, this could be your next shop.
Jack Morton is looking for an experienced Lead Carpenter – Custom Exhibits & Experiential Events to join our Production team and build the custom environments, cabinetry, millwork, exhibits, and specialty pieces that bring brands to life.
This isn’t repetitive production work. Every project is different. You’ll build one-of-a-kind pieces for trade shows, branded environments, experiential events,



and other high-profile productions – often working from creative concepts that have never been built before.
You’ll bring your craftsmanship and technical expertise to projects where the details matter. And as the Lead, you’ll have the opportunity to mentor other craftspeople, solve challenging fabrication problems, and help determine the smartest way to turn a design into reality.
What You’ll Build Your work may include:
Custom cabinetry and millwork
Counters, kiosks, and display fixtures
Exhibit structures and architectural components
Specialty scenic and branded elements
Complex custom assemblies and one-off pieces
High-end finished components for trade shows and experiential environments
You’ll take projects from drawing to finished piece, using precision woodworking and fabrication techniques to create work that looks outstanding, fits correctly, travels well, and stands up in a live event environment.
What You’ll Do Craftsmanship
Fabricate, assemble, and finish premium custom cabinetry, millwork, exhibits, and specialty components.
Read and interpret shop drawings, CAD plans, and design specifications.
Use advanced woodworking techniques including precision cutting, shaping, laminating, joinery, and complex assemblies.
Work with a wide range of materials including plywood, MDF, melamine, laminates, veneers, solid wood,



and specialty substrates.
Inspect your work—and your team’s work—for accuracy, quality, durability, and finish.
Take ownership of projects from fabrication through completion.
Lead From the Shop Floor
Lead by example and set the standard for craftsmanship.
Mentor cabinet makers and shop assistants.
Help assign work based on project priorities, skills, and deadlines.
Review work in progress and provide hands-on guidance.
Troubleshoot difficult fabrication and construction challenges.
Partner with the Shop Foreman, Production Manager, Project Managers, and Detailing team to keep projects moving.
Help Us Build Better We’re always looking for smarter ways to build.
You’ll have a voice in improving drawings, fabrication methods, workflow, material usage, and shop efficiency. You’ll also partner with the Detailing team to identify potential issues before they reach the shop floor.
And, of course, you’ll help maintain a shop where people can do excellent work safely.
What You Bring We’re looking for a craftsperson first and a leader second—someone who takes genuine pride in the quality of what they build.
5+ years of professional experience in cabinet making, custom millwork, finish carpentry, architectural woodworking, or a related trade.
Strong experience with high-end custom fabrication.
At least 1 year of experience leading projects, mentoring others, or serving as a senior craftsperson.
The ability to confidently read shop drawings, blueprints, and CAD-generated plans.
