Job Description:

This is a LEAD role — not an entry or helper position. Kitchen Tune-Up Brooklyn is a family-run, locally owned company known for high-end craftsmanship, professionalism, and consistency. Our reputation is built on 135+ five-star reviews, long-term client relationships, and respect for the trade. We run organized, well-planned jobs—not chaos. Our installers work in high-quality residential kitchens across Brooklyn and Manhattan, often in apartments and occupied homes where precision, communication, and teamwork matter as much as technical skill. This is not a volume shop and not a place for shortcuts.

Job Responsibility:

  • Lead full kitchen cabinet installations (new cabinets + refacing projects)
  • Execute high-level finish carpentry: Mitered trim & molding, Crown molding, Scribing to walls/ceilings, Custom fillers, panels, and modifications
  • Read plans, elevations, and take precise measurements
  • Problem-solve real-world site conditions (out-of-square walls, uneven floors)
  • Direct and mentor installers/helpers
  • Communicate clearly with homeowners and project managers
  • Maintain a clean, professional job site
  • Inspect work for accuracy and craftsmanship before sign-off

Requirements:

  • Minimum 3-5+ years of cabinet installation / finish carpentry experience
  • Proven experience leading installations or crews
  • Strong woodworking fundamentals
  • Ability to work independently and manage a full install day
  • Experience working in occupied residential homes
  • Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation
  • Own professional-grade hand tools (specialty tools provided)

Nice to have:

  • Take pride in doing things the right way
  • Communicate clearly with teammates and homeowners
  • Show up prepared, organized, and professional
  • Understand that great kitchens are built by strong teams, not egos
What we offer:
  • Opportunity for advancement
  • Paid time off
  • Steady, year-round work
  • Clear scopes
  • Realistic schedules
  • Leadership that respects experienced craftsmen
