Join a Company Where Quality Comes First

Holland & Harley Construction is a high-end general contractor that has been building exceptional projects throughout the Bay Area for over 40 years. We specialize in luxury home remodels, custom new construction, commercial tenant improvements, restaurants, and architecturally complex projects that demand craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Many of our employees have been with us for decades, and we're looking for the next generation of carpenters who want to build a long-term career—not just find another job.

Who We're Looking For

We're seeking someone with approximately 2–8 years of construction or carpentry experience who has a solid foundation of skills but is still eager to grow.

You don't need to know everything. In fact, we'd rather hire someone who is motivated, adaptable, and willing to learn our methods.

The ideal candidate:

Has 2–8 years of hands-on construction or carpentry experience
Understands basic framing, finish carpentry, and general construction practices
Can work independently without needing constant direction
Takes initiative and stays productive when not being directly instructed
Is eager to learn and open to new ways of doing things
Works well as part of a close-knit team
Is willing to do whatever the job requires—from fine finish work to demolition, cleanup, and material handling
Enjoys working hard, staying active, and taking pride in quality work
Can safely lift and carry 50 pounds
Has a valid driver’s license and reliable transportation
Is authorized to work in the United States
Spanish language skills are a strong plus, but not required

What You'll Do

Our work is diverse, and no two projects are exactly alike. Depending on the project, responsibilities may include:

Framing and structural carpentry
Finish carpentry and trim installation
Cabinet and millwork installation
Demolition and site preparation
Installing doors, windows, siding, and hardware
Assisting with concrete, waterproofing, and exterior work
Material handling and jobsite organization
Working alongside experienced carpenters to build high-quality projects

Benefits

$28–$38 per hour depending on experience
Simple IRA with company matching
50% employer-paid health insurance
