Description:
Fancy a woodworking job where you don't spend every day staring at the same four workshop walls?
We're recruiting an experienced Woodworker / Carpenter to join an established business designing, building and installing exhibition stands for clients across the UK and occasionally Europe.
It's a genuinely varied role. Roughly half your time will be spent in the workshop building and preparing stands, with the other half out on site installing them and, once the exhibition is over, taking them back down again.
What you'll be doing:
Building and assembling exhibition stands in the workshop
Working from drawings and specifications
Preparing stands and components ready for installation
Travelling to exhibition venues around the UK
Installing and dismantling stands on site
Occasionally travelling to European exhibitions
Working as part of an experienced build and installation teamBecause of the nature of exhibitions, there will be overtime and some overnight stays. Overtime is paid at time and a half, so there is good scope to earn considerably more than the basic hourly rate.
When you're working away, your travel and associated expenses are covered.
We're looking for someone who already knows their way around woodworking and carpentry. Experience building exhibition stands, sets, displays or shopfitting would be particularly useful.
You'll need to be practical, reliable and comfortable working to deadlines. You'll also need to be happy travelling and staying away occasionally when a job requires it.
A full driving licence is essential.
The basic rate is £16 per hour, which we appreciate isn't the highest in the market. However, for someone happy to put the hours in, the overtime at time and a half provides the opportunity to significantly increase overall earnings.
If you're a capable woodworker who enjoys variety, wants to get out of the workshop and doesn't mind travelling to see the finished job come together, this could be a great fit.
