What we can provide
Short commute
We work within a very small radius. We don't go over bridges to jobs. All of our work is in a 5-10 mile radius of downtown Berkeley.
Weekends
We work during the week, standard hours, and care more about being efficient than pushing ourselves with unrealistic deadlines.
Quality work
We have staff and subs that have been working with us for many years. We really care about getting the work done right, not about cutting corners.
Steady work, time off
We have had continual work for all of our staff for many years. We give paid vacation and grant that time off as we know you will come back refreshed. We also have healthcare and a matching 401k plan.
Great clients
We can choose who we work for, carefully selecting homeowners and architects that are reasonable, professional, and have interesting projects.
You
Have some years in construction overseeing others.
Care about your work and are proud to see a well finished job.
Are organized. You can plan your day and the upcoming schedule and prefer to work with a plan.
Want to work with an organized company that has your back for long term employment.
Berkeley Craftsmen is a small East Bay firm with over 25 years of work in the area, focusing on additions and remodels on older homes in and around Berkeley. We have a list of architects that work with us and have a full calendar of work through next year. We care about our employees and tend to hire for long term positions.
The project manager position will include ordering materials, scheduling work, creating change orders. It will involve talking with clients, architects, engineers, and subcontractors and our staff. You must be able to read architectural plans and work with a careful schedule. Keeping track of a construction project is demanding but rewarding.
