• Manufacturing custom joinery
• Reading and interpreting detailed drawings
• Mitred joinery and precision assembly work
• Curved laminating, forming and fabrication

With CNC machinery, panel saws, edge banders and a fully equipped workshop, we manufacture the majority of our work in-house.

This is a role for someone who enjoys seeing unique projects come to life.

What We Offer

• Full-time employment with a stable company
• Supportive and experienced team
• Diverse and interesting projects - no 2 days are the same
