Reston, VA, and we're looking for an experienced Lead Carpenter /
Project Manager to own job sites from demo day through final punch
list. This is a working position — you'll be hands-on in the field

and trade partners. If you take pride in your craft, hate being

company that actually values quality over speed, this is your

and inspect trade partner work across all disciplines — electrical,
plumbing, HVAC, roofing, drywall, painting, and masonry - Read and
execute from detailed architectural plans - Manage job site
schedule, budget adherence, and daily documentation - Serve as the
on-site point of contact for homeowners throughout each project

remodeling (not new construction) - Strong finish carpentry and
cabinetry installation skills - Proven ability to manage a job site
independently - Comfortable reading architectural and construction
plans - Excellent communication skills — with clients,
subcontractors, and an in-house design team - Organized,
accountable, and professional - A genuine pride in the finished
product Why Synergy - Local focus — we work only in Reston and
nearby NoVA communities - In-house design team — plans and
materials are finalized before you arrive on site - Quality over
speed — always - Stable, year-round work — no seasonal layoffs, no
slowdowns - No weekends — consistent Monday–Friday schedule

company matching - Paid Time Off & Paid Holidays - Flexible
