We help our clients unlock the full value of experiences by turning bold ideas into meaningful connections. We build on each other’s ideas, challenge conventions, and show up for one another every day. Lead Carpenter – Custom Exhibits & Experiential Events 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.
Exhibit structures and architectural components Complex custom assemblies and one-off pieces You’ll take projects from drawing to finished piece, using precision woodworking and fabrication techniques to create work that looks great, fits correctly, travels well, and stands up in a live event workplace.
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.
Help assign work based on project priorities, skills, and deadlines. 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
You’ll have a voice in improving drawings, fabrication methods, workflow, material usage, and shop efficiency. And, of course, you’ll help maintain a shop where people can do great work safely. 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. #
