Are you a high-level lead carpenter who’s tired of carrying a team that doesn’t seem to give a damn? Innovex Renovations may be the next step you have been looking for.

Identity

If you are someone who takes pride in doing things the right way, not the fastest sloppy way, this role is built for you.
We are looking for a Lead Carpenter / Working Foreman who can run high-end residential remodeling projects with skill, ownership, and professionalism. You do not need to be perfect, but you do need to care. You need to think like a leader, communicate clearly, solve problems calmly, and hold the line on quality.
You are the kind of person who notices when a site is messy, when a wall is out of plumb, when a detail needs to be clarified, or when a younger carpenter needs coaching instead of criticism.
You do not wait around for someone else to own the outcome. You take responsibility.

Environment

At Innovex Renovations, we work on high-end residential remodels: kitchens, bathrooms, additions, and whole-home renovations throughout Asheville NC and the surrounding area.
This is not production work. This is detailed remodeling where homeowners expect professionalism, clean sites, respectful communication, and strong execution.
Your day may include laying out framing, installing trim, coordinating materials, leading one to three team members, walking a homeowner through a question, solving a field condition, reading plans, or making sure the site is ready for the next trade.
You will work around people who care about craftsmanship, accountability, and getting better. We expect clean job sites, organized communication, and professional conduct in occupied homes.
This is a working leadership role. You will have tools on, but you will also be expected to lead.

Why You

We promise you:

You will be surrounded by higher standards.
We care about quality, cleanliness, communication, and doing what we said we would do.
You will have a real path to grow.

For the right person, this role can grow into a Project Manager position with more responsibility, leadership, and earning potential.

You will be treated like a professional.

You bring serious skill and ownership to the table. We will respect that, support it, and expect you to keep raising the bar.
