Now Hiring Production Manager Kitchen and Bath Remodeling

Bloomfield, NJ
Full Time
Paid
  • Responsibilities

    Role Summary The Production Manager owns everything that happens after a project is sold, across both our kitchen and bathroom brands. You run the production schedule, lead the install crews, solve the technical problems the field throws at you, and keep homeowners confident from the first day on site to the final walkthrough.

    This is a working leadership role — and we mean working. You'll direct crews and subcontractors, and pick up the tools yourself: stepping in to keep a job moving, covering a short-staffed crew, and handling the difficult installs personally. You'll lead five in-house technicians and helpers across kitchen and bath, plus our subcontractor network in plumbing, electrical, tile, countertop, flooring, and painting. If you want a clipboard-only job, this isn't it.

    Key Responsibilities

    Crew Leadership

    Lead and develop the kitchen technicians and bath crew — five direct reports

    Set and hold the quality standard on both cabinetry and bathroom work

    Cross-train the team so no single trade depends on one person

    Assign daily work and keep every crew productive

    Production Scheduling

    Own the install calendar across both brands

    Maintain a rolling three-week look-ahead so nothing surprises the team

    Schedule and manage subcontractors and hold them to their dates

    Confirm material is on site and complete before work starts

    Technical Execution

    Resolve fabrication, layout, and field-condition problems on site

    Kitchen: cabinet refacing, custom cabinet installation, finish carpentry, countertops

    Bath: full bathroom remodels including plumbing, electrical, tile, and waterproofing

    Make the call when a field condition requires a change order, and escalate before work proceeds

    Client Experience

    Serve as the homeowner's point of contact from install start through punch complete

    Communicate daily on active jobs — what happened today, what happens tomorrow

    Address concerns on site, professionally and immediately

    Permits, Documentation & Closeout

    Identify which projects require permits and by when (our Coordinator files and tracks them)

    Same-day photo documentation in CompanyCam at every stage

    Daily logs in JobTread during install

    Walk every completion, drive the punchlist to zero, execute warranty work

    What Success Looks Like

    Every active job has a current schedule, and the crew knows what's coming three weeks out

    No crew arrives before the material does

    Homeowners hear from us every day their job is active

    Punch items close in days, not weeks, and final payments release on time

    The team gets better each quarter because you're training them

    Who Should Apply You've run job sites long enough that you can walk into a half-finished bathroom and know in thirty seconds what went wrong and how to fix it. You'd rather be in the field than behind a desk, but you're disciplined enough to keep a schedule and daily logs up to date without being chased. You want ownership — crew development, subcontractor accountability, margin — not just a task list, and you're looking for a long-term leadership track, not a stopgap.

    Qualifications 5+ years running residential remodeling production, as a superintendent, production manager, or lead foreman

    Strong hands-on skill in cabinetry and finish carpentry, with working knowledge of bath trades (plumbing, electrical, tile) — you must be able to do the work yourself, not just direct it

    Able to read plans, layouts, and cabinet specifications

    Valid NJ driver's license and reliable transportation

    Compensation & Benefits Pay: $85,000–$105,000, based on experience

    Bonus: Performance bonus tied to on-time completion and project gross margin

    Schedule: Full-time, Monday–Friday, field-based across Essex, Morris, and Passaic counties

    Vehicle: Company vehicle or vehicle allowance

    Training: Paid onboarding on our systems, products, and franchise standards

    Work volume: Steady, year-round — no seasonal layoffs

    Growth: Direct path to Director of Operations as we scale
