Destin–Niceville, Florida and surrounding areas

Lead the Work. Develop the Team. Take Pride in the Finish.
We’re a small, family-oriented Kitchen Tune-Up team looking for a dependable Field Supervisor / Working Foreman who cares about craftsmanship, customers, and the people doing the work.
We need someone who can take accurate measurements, organize a job, develop installers, communicate clearly, and help bring projects across the finish line. You should be comfortable using technology, solving problems, and stepping in alongside the crew when needed.
This is a working leadership role—not a desk-only project management position. You’ll work closely with ownership and our office team to keep projects organized, crews supported, and homeowners informed.
We’re looking for a team player who takes ownership without an ego—and who enjoys helping others succeed while taking pride in their own work, leading by example when necessary.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
Accurate Measurements & Job Preparation
Take and verify precise field measurements for cabinetry, doors, drawer fronts, openings, trim, and related installation needs. Read layouts, drawings, work orders, and manufacturer specifications.
Identify discrepancies before materials are ordered or work begins. Confirm that the crew has the correct scope, measurements, materials, tools, and instructions for the job.
“It should fit” is not our measurement standard.
Crew Leadership & Team Development
Lead daily field activities, assign work clearly, and set realistic expectations. Coach installers, help newer team members build skills, and provide respectful, constructive feedback. Schedule
Lead by example in workmanship, punctuality, safety, communication, and customer care. Address issues early and help the team improve—not simply point out what went wrong. Keep the team on time and on budget while also supporting them and growing their skill set.
Project Coordination & Follow-Through
Help coordinate schedules, deliveries, installers, and trade partners. Plan upcoming work, track progress, and identify obstacles before they disrupt the project.
Monitor labor and material use, communicate potential spillover, and keep leadership informed. Make sure unfinished items have a clear owner and next step rather than being passed along or forgotten. Punch lists should become a thing of the past with the right person.
Technology & Daily Documentation
Use our project-management software and digital tools consistently for schedules, job notes, photos, measurements, checklists, time tracking, and progress updates.
Keep project information current so the field and office teams are working from the same plan. You do not need to know our exact software on day one, but you must be comfortable learning it and using it daily.
Workmanship, Quality & Customer Experience
Oversee installation quality, fit and finish, cabinet and hardware adjustments, and final punch-list completion. Step in with hands-on assistance within your skills and authorized scope.
Communicate professionally with homeowners, protect their property, and keep work areas orderly. Complete walkthroughs and verify that outstanding items are resolved—not just reported as done.
Safety, Scope & Problem-Solving
Maintain appropriate jobsite protection, safe work practices, and daily cleanup. Identify unsafe conditions and pause affected work when necessary.
Document unexpected conditions and customer requests. Obtain the appropriate approvals before changing the scope, committing to additional costs, or promising a revised completion date.
We value someone who brings problems forward early—with thoughtful options for solving them.
What You Bring
- Strong measurement and layout skills. You are accurate with a tape measure, comfortable with fractions and construction math, and able to interpret project drawings and specifications.
- Hands-on residential remodeling experience. You have a solid background in cabinetry, installation, finish carpentry, or related work, along with experience leading a crew or serving as a lead installer.
- A genuine ability to develop people. You can teach, delegate, set expectations, and hold others accountable without disrespect or unnecessary conflict.
- Project coordination experience. You understand scheduling, materials, job sequencing, trade coordination, and the importance of finishing outstanding details.
- Technology confidence and dependable communication. You can use a smartphone, tablet, or computer for daily documentation and keep both customers and teammates informed.
You must also be able to travel between local job sites, have a valid driver’s license for job-related driving, and perform the essential field duties with or without reasonable accommodation. These duties include working in occupied homes, standing, kneeling, using appropriate ladders, and moving tools and materials with safe lifting practices and assistance as needed.
Experience That Would Be a Great Bonus
Cabinet refacing and redooring experience is especially valuable, including familiarity with surface preparation, veneers or laminates, replacement doors and drawer fronts, hinges, and hardware.
Experience coordinating countertop installations, completing detailed finish work, or helping improve field processes is also welcome.
Basic plumbing and electrical experience is a plus, particularly for recognizing coordination needs and communicating with trade partners. Any hands-on trade work must remain within applicable licensing, permitting, supervision, and company-authorization requirements. Work requiring licensed trades will be handled through appropriately licensed professionals.
Strong leadership, measurement skills, and a willingness to learn matter more than having every specialty on this list.
What Success Looks Like
The crew arrives prepared. Measurements are verified. Materials and instructions are ready. Homeowners understand what is happening. Problems are addressed early, and projects finish with fewer preventable mistakes and return trips.
Just as importantly, the people working alongside you become more capable, confident, and accountable.
Why Join Our Team?
We’re a close-knit, family-oriented team that values respect, reliability, good communication, and people who help one another.
This is an opportunity to work directly with ownership, contribute practical ideas, develop our field team, and make a visible difference in the quality of our projects.
We’re not just looking for someone to supervise the work. We’re looking for someone who makes the whole team better and helps us stay more organized in field operations. We seek consistency and experience with a proven track record.
