Construction Foreman

Working Foreman

We are looking for a hands-on Working Foreman to lead and work alongside field crews on residential and multifamily additions, renovations, new homes, and select commercial projects in a jobsite-based construction environment. Alpha Hire is recruiting on behalf of a client, a long-established regional builder serving the Lancaster, PA area. This role is responsible for field execution, crew leadership, and daily jobsite progress rather than office-based project management.

The position is ideal for a working foreman who can take ownership in the field while contributing directly to high-quality construction work.

Responsibilities

• Lead and work alongside field crews on active residential, multifamily, renovation, addition, new-home, and light commercial construction projects
• Drive daily jobsite execution by keeping crews productive, materials organized, and project work moving according to plan
• Read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, scopes of work, and field instructions to guide accurate installation
• Oversee carpentry and general construction activities while maintaining quality, safety, and workmanship standards
• Communicate jobsite needs, schedule updates, and project issues clearly with company leadership, subcontractors, and field team members
• Support project starts, daily site setup, inspections, punch work, and closeout activities as needed
• Identify field problems early and help resolve construction issues without unnecessary delays
• Travel to job sites generally within about one hour of the Lancaster, PA area
