We are proud of our remarkable Carlson team and we are seeking an individual who leads by example and who has a proven track record.

Carlson specializes in commercial, light industrial and multi-unit residential project execution.

The Foreperson plays a critical leadership role in day-to-day site operations, supporting the Superintendent by directing work crews, monitoring progress, and ensuring safe, high-quality construction practices. As a hands-on leader, the Foreperson ensures tasks are executed according to plan, facilitates real-time problem-solving, and fosters a positive, development-oriented team environment. This role bridges field execution with project supervision, contributing to timely project delivery and overall operational excellence.

· Participate in weekly safety meetings and live site briefings.

· Collaborate with the Superintendent and Project Manager to provide input on scheduling and workforce needs.

· Maintain open lines of communication with all trades, suppliers, and internal stakeholders.

Health & Safety and Compliance:

· Reinforce a culture of zero-incident safety by leading by example and ensuring adherence to Carlson Construction's safety protocols.

· Conduct safety orientations for new workers and confirm PPE usage.

· Administer First Aid and initiate emergency response procedures as necessary.

· Participate in hazard assessments and ensure site-specific safety measures are documented and enforced.

· Complete safety and equipment inspections at required intervals.

Project Quality and Reporting:

· Monitor work for alignment with drawings, project specs, and Carlson's quality standards.

· Provide real-time feedback to team members and address deficiencies proactively.

· Maintain records for daily work progress, materials used, and jobsite conditions.

· Support Superintendent in delivering weekly updated work plans.

· Conduct regular quality inspections as part of site quality control.
