  • You will strip and replace timber floors (including splicing timber floor joists to preservation standards), carry out solum sealing, renew door frames, architraves, windows, sills and doors
  • Splicing of roof timbers and specialist timber resin repairs
  • Our specialist technicians also carry out basement waterproofing work, and structural defects repairs, such as wall tie installation and crack-stitching
Requirements:
We would love you to have:
  • Preservation joinery experience
  • An apprenticeship background, City and Guilds or NVQ qualifications (not essential)
  • Experience working as a Joiner, Carpenter or a Preservation Technician
  • Full UK Manual Driving Licence for at least 2 years with no more than 6 penalty points
  • A can-do attitude, and able to use your own initiative in tricky situations
  • Great communication and customer service skills with a keen, enthusiastic and friendly approach
Benefits:
  • A competitive package of salary plus bonus, with realistic OTE £30,000 per annum
  • Company van, fuel card, uniform and tools
  • Monthly bonus scheme
  • Sales lead commission
  • Grading promotions that increase your basic salary based on your annual performance for the first three years
