You will need to be comfortable working in a manufacturing environment, following technical instructions and producing work to a consistently high standard.

Please note: This is a specialist manufacturing spray-finishing position and is not suitable for general painters and decorators without relevant spray-finishing experience.

What’s on Offer?

• Monday to Friday, daytime hours – no shifts.

• 37.5-hour working week.
