Northern Kitchens operates a dedicated in-house paint shop, fully equipped with an open-face spray booth and a fully enclosed spray booth, covering approximately two-thirds of one of our factory sites. Due to sustained workload — including work generated from external joinery businesses seeking painting services — we are seeking an experienced, qualified Painter to join our team on a full-time basis, working alongside our existing painter and paint shop support staff.
This is a genuine full-time position within a business that generates 40–50 hours of painting and finishing work per week, and there is scope for the role to grow as external painting work increases.
Key Duties
Spray application of polyurethane and acid catalyst (2-pack) finishes to timber, timber veneer and manufactured panel products
Hand brush-painting of doors and panels to achieve specific brush-stroke finishes
Application of clear polyurethane and varnish coatings to timber and timber veneer surfaces
Staining of timber and timber veneer prior to finishing
Surface preparation, masking and colour/finish matching prior to spraying or hand finishing
Mixing and preparing paints, stains,
lacquers and catalysed finishes to specification
Maintaining and caring for spray equipment, booths and finishing tools
Attending client and project sites as required to carry out hand-finish touch-up work and, on occasion, in office spray touch-ups
Working to quality and safety standards, including correct use of PPE and spray booth ventilation systems
About You
Trade qualification in Painting and Decorating (or equivalent trade experience/qualification) — essential
Demonstrated experience with spray application techniques, including 2-pack/acid catalyst and polyurethane finishes
Experience hand-finishing timber joinery to a high standard
Ability to work independently and as part of a small paint shop team
Willingness to travel to project/installation sites when required for touch-up work
Strong attention to detail and finish quality
What We Offer
Full-time, ongoing position
Modern, dedicated painting facility with open and enclosed spray booths
Supportive team environment with experienced paint shop staff
Opportunity to work across a broad range of finishing techniques and projects
