Lead a High-Performance Team Building Exceptional Outdoor Living Spaces
Are you the kind of person who shows up every day ready to lead, build, and take ownership? Deck Teck — Maine's leader in high-end deck construction and restoration — is looking for an experienced Crew Lead to take the reins on job sites and help drive our continued growth across Southern Maine and New Hampshire.
This isn't just a carpentry job. We're looking for an A-player — someone with sharp skills, a great attitude, and the drive to hold a high standard for themselves and the people around them. We're a small company that thinks big. We've been in business since 2014 and we're constantly improving how we build, how we operate, and how we deliver for our clients — and we're looking for someone who's wired the same way. If you get genuine satisfaction from solving problems, finding a better way to do things, and pushing the quality of your work forward every day, you'll feel right at home here.
What You'll Do
Lead a small crew through deck builds from start to finish — footings, framing, and finish work — while maintaining Deck Teck's quality standard on every project.
Own the job site: manage daily workflow, keep the team focused and efficient, and ensure work is completed on schedule.
Prepare deck construction plans for new deck builds.
Manage the permit/inspection process from application through job completion.
Accurately order materials for each job.
Evaluate and perform structural repairs and restorations on existing decks.
Restore and refinish wood surfaces including sanding and staining.
Oversee and perform pressure washing and soft washing services on homes, decks, and patios.
Be the face of Deck Teck on every job site — communicating proactively with clients, setting clear expectations, and solving problems before they become issues.
Train and mentor crew members, reinforcing best practices and a culture of craftsmanship.
What You Bring
Proven experience in deck construction or carpentry — you've done this before and done it well.
Experience leading or supervising (even informally).
The ability to read and interpret construction plans.
Solid understanding of deck structural principles.
Familiarity with building permit process and the ability to prepare basic plans.
Mastery of power tools and precision cutting and installation.
Physical ability to lift materials, work at heights, and perform outdoor work year-round.
A sharp eye for detail and a genuine passion for quality work.
Strong communication and problem-solving skills — you think on your feet.
A coachable, ego-free attitude — you're confident in your skills but always open to feedback and new ways of doing things.
The drive to work efficiently and the awareness to spot a better way of doing things.
