Apprentice Carpenter

Why Join Us? Ackard has been a trusted name in Edmonton for over 40 years, known for quality craftsmanship and homes that truly stand out. We’re a close-knit team that takes pride in our work, supports each other, and genuinely enjoys what we do. Every project is a chance to be creative, solve problems, and see the real impact of your skills. Our culture is built on honesty, integrity, respect, passion, and continuous growth - values we live every day. If you’re looking for a place where you can do great work, feel at home, and have some fun along the way, Ackard is the place to be.

What You’ll Do

As our next Apprentice Carpenter, you’ll report to our Lead Hand Carpenters and Site Supervisors and play a hands-on role supporting the Construction Team across all phases of residential renovations and custom home builds - from demolition to framing.

Your day-to-day may include:

Taking direction from the Lead Hand, Site Supervisor, and Construction Manager.
Assisting with demolition, site prep, cleanup, salvaging materials, and maintaining a hazard-free work zone.
Loading and unloading materials, tools, and equipment, and distributing them according to plans or specs.
Helping frame foundations, walls, floors, ceilings, and roofs using a variety of materials including wood, steel, and composites.
Supporting the installation of doors, windows, hardware, trim, and other finishing components.
Erecting and dismantling scaffolding, ladders, and concrete forms; mixing and pouring concrete when needed.
Operating or tending equipment like pumps, compressors, generators, and portable cement mixers.
Measuring, cutting, and shaping materials using hand and power tools, ensuring precision and quality.
Reading and interpreting blueprints, drawings, and sketches to support layout and construction tasks.
Working alongside sub-trades to meet project goals and timelines.
Participating in safety practices, including daily hazard assessments and weekly toolbox meetings.
Upholding all Ackard standards, procedures, and building codes on every project.

This role is a great fit for someone eager to build technical skills, gain hands-on experience, and contribute to high-quality residential projects in a supportive and values-driven environment.

What You Bring We’re looking for someone who’s passionate about their work, eager to contribute to a team, and committed to delivering high-quality results. You’ll do well in this role if you:

Have some residential framing experience.
Consistently produce high-quality work while maintaining professionalism.
Maintain a positive, professional demeanor with clients, sub-trades, and team members.
Have a solid understanding of tools and their proper use.
Demonstrate strong attention to detail.
Communicate clearly and effectively, both verbally and in writing.
Analyze situations and make informed decisions.
Plan and organize tasks efficiently.

What We Offer

We believe great people deserve great support. Here's what you can expect when you work with us:

Be part of an award-winning residential renovation company with over 40 years of success and a strong track record of continued growth.
Competitive compensation that reflects your skills and experience.
Comprehensive health and dental benefits through Sun Life.
Employee & Family Assistance Program.
Short-term and long-term disability coverage.
Life insurance.
Voluntary RRSP plan with company contributions.
Professional development, training, and career growth opportunities.
Paid personal and sick time.
Positive, team-driven culture built on collaboration and respect.
Birthday, work anniversary, and milestone recognition.
Christmas holiday shutdown.
Team-building and social events.
Strong commitment to work-life balance with little to no overtime.

Working Conditions This position involves hands-on work in both interior and exterior residential construction environments. Team members must be comfortable working in variable conditions and adapting to the physical demands of a dynamic job site.

Work takes place on residential renovation and custom home build sites
Exposure to seasonal weather - heat, cold, rain, and snow when working outdoors
Frequently required to lift, carry, or move materials and equipment weighing up to 50 lbs; occasional lifting of items up to 75 lbs with assistance
Regular tasks include standing, walking, climbing, kneeling, crouching, and handling construction tools and materials
Work may be performed in confined, elevated, dusty, or noisy spaces
Use of ladders, scaffolding, and power/hand tools is frequent
Must wear appropriate PPE at all times (e.g., hard hat, safety boots, eye and ear protection)
Monday to Friday daytime schedule; minimal overtime and no overnight travel required

Work With Purpose At Ackard, we’re guided by our core values: honesty, integrity, respect, passion, and a dynamic culture. We take pride in both the work we do and the relationships we build along the way. If you’re looking to grow your skills, contribute to projects that matter, and enjoy a workplace where every day brings something new, we’d love to hear from you.
