This is an excellent opportunity for a Spray Painter who understands that precision, quality and compliance are just as important as the finished product.

The role would ideally suit someone with experience in aviation, aerospace, defence, automotive, industrial or other highly regulated manufacturing environments where strict procedures, product knowledge, quality standards and detailed documentation are part of everyday work.

If you are a Spray Painter who takes pride in producing a high-quality finish and understands the importance of following specifications and processes, this could be an excellent opportunity.

• Aviation / Aerospace
• Defence
• Automotive
• Industrial manufacturing
• Heavy equipment
• Other highly regulated or quality-controlled environments

Experience working with specialised coatings, primers and paint systems will be highly regarded.

Most importantly, you will need to be someone who:

• Takes pride in producing high-quality work
• Understands the importance of following procedures and specifications
• Has excellent attention to detail
• Is comfortable with detailed paperwork and compliance requirements
• Understands the importance of product traceability and quality control
• Has strong knowledge of paint preparation and application
• Is reliable and takes ownership of their work
• Has a strong work ethic and professional attitude
• Is comfortable working in a regulated manufacturing environment
