Who We Are
We’re a growing project-focused team doing interesting and purposeful work, including build support for Dominion-related projects that demand consistency, quality, and ingenuity. Our environment is hands-on, respectful, and built around capable doers who take pride in what they produce.

What You’ll Do
As our part-time carpenter assistant, you will be responsible for efficient, good-quality wood builds and related assembly tasks. These are quality, military and museum grade jobs where precision must be within an 1/8 and in some cases within a 1/16 of an inch. We’re building purposeful wooden crates, frameworks, and supporting structures that keep our customers operations moving day-to-day.

Typical Duties:

- Support the set up and build wooden crates, wood structures and ATA cases to exact specifications
- Measure and cut lumber and assist in the accurate and productive assembly
- Follow build guides, sketches, and instructions with an eye for fit and finish
- Use hand and power tools safely and confidently
- Maintain a clean, organized workspace and care for tools/equipment
- Work with the team to optimize build processes and output quality
- Maintain impeccable paperwork of production and process for audits

Who You Are

- Reliable and committed — you show up ready to work
- Comfortable with hands-on tasks and good with tools




- Learner-oriented — you take direction well and want to improve
- Good communicator and team player
- Detail-minded enough to hold tight tolerances and consistent quality

Experience & Qualifications

- Carpentry experience or training is helpful but not strictly required — we value attitude and a willingness to learn.
- A high school diploma is an asset.
- Ability to lift, stand, bend, and work safely in a production environment.
- Driver’s licence and reliable transportation preferred.
- Access to your own truck is a major benefit/plus

What We Offer

- Entry level pay in the trade at $19/hr range (may be adjusted for experience)
- Part-time hours, stable schedule of 8am to 4pm with 1 hour unpaid lunch every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday each week.
- Opportunity to grow into broader responsibilities
- Meaningful involvement with Dominion-aligned work and other projects

Why This Role Matters
This isn’t grunt labour — you’ll help build the backbone of our operation: solid, reliable wood builds that keep projects on goal and on schedule. If you’re a motivated doer who wants to work with a team that values craft, consistency, and accountability, this role is for you.

Job Type: Part-time

Pay: From $19.00 per hour

Expected hours: 21.0 – 35.0 per week

Work Location: In person
