Carpenter-Remote Camp

Job Description

Role Overview

We are seeking a resourceful Carpenter to lead the physical setup, maintenance, and decommissioning of remote workforce camps. This isn't your average framing job—you’ll be the "boots on the ground" responsible for ensuring safe, habitable environments in challenging environments. From assembling modular dorms to building custom arctic corridors, your work provides the foundation for the entire crew's comfort and safety.

 

Key Responsibilities

• Modular Installation: Lead the leveling, blocking, and complex joining of modular trailers and "Skid-shack" units.
• Structural Assembly: Construct decks, stairs, boardwalks, and essential camp infrastructure.
• Weatherproofing: Install specialized insulation, skirting, and Tin work.
• Decommissioning: Efficiently dismantle structures for transport, ensuring minimal environmental impact and material salvage.

 

Qualifications

Skills & Requirements

Experience

3-5 years in commercial or industrial carpentry; remote camp experience is a major plus.

Technical Proficiency

Expert-level skill with power tools, leveling instruments, and reading blueprints in the field.

Adaptability

Ability to troubleshoot structural issues with limited materials and "make it work."

Physical Stamina

Must be comfortable working long shifts (10–12 hours) in extreme weather conditions.

Safety First

Valid Fall Protection, Aerial Work Platform (AWP), and Standard First Aid certifications.

 

This is for the builder who loves a change of scenery and the unique satisfaction of building a "city" where there was once nothing. You’ll be provided with full room and board, travel coverage, and a competitive pay that reflects the grit required for remote work.
