We’re looking for skilled furniture fitters to partner with Hammonds, with access to pre-surveyed installation opportunities across both our Consumer and Trade businesses. Opportunities can range from installing beautifully crafted fitted furniture in customers’ homes to site-based installations within new-build properties.

Trade & New-Build Installations

• Usually Monday–Friday; occasional weekends at clients’ request.

Make the most of your diary: Choose Consumer or Trade opportunities to suit your business, with the flexibility to take on both to help fill your diary and maximise your earning potential.
