Build real furniture from start to finish. No CNC programming. No installation runs. No repetitive flat-pack production.

Cabinet Maker / Furniture Maker – Bespoke Custom Furniture

About Jimmy & Ross

Jimmy & Ross is an Australian furniture company manufacturing custom and made-to-order furniture from our factory in Milperra.

We don't just produce standard flat-pack cabinetry.

A large part of what we do is genuinely custom furniture. Bookcases, entertainment units, buffets, cabinets, wardrobes, tables and completely one-off pieces made for individual customers and their homes.

We are looking for an experienced Cabinet Maker / Furniture Maker who actually enjoys making furniture.

Someone who can walk into the workshop, look at what needs to be built, work out the best way to make it and turn timber and sheet material into a properly finished piece of furniture.

The Role

This is a hands-on furniture-making position.

There is no expectation that you sit behind a computer designing furniture or programming CNC machines.

Most of what we make is built traditionally in the workshop using standard woodworking machinery, hand tools, experience and a good eye.

You'll be involved in jobs from beginning to end, including:

- Building custom furniture and cabinetry from scratch
- Constructing cabinets, carcasses, drawers, doors, shelving and furniture components
- Cutting, machining, assembling and fitting components
- Working predominantly with timber and timber-based furniture products
- Making adjustments and solving problems as a job comes together
- Fitting trims, mouldings and finishing details
- Preparing furniture ready for final sanding and finishing




- Producing one-off and unusual custom pieces where there isn't always a cookie-cutter answer
- Making sure the finished piece is square, solid, functional and looks right

We have people who can assist with sanding, preparation and other production work.

What we really need is someone who can build the furniture.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone with experience as a:

- Cabinet Maker
- Furniture Maker
- Joiner
- Experienced custom furniture tradesperson

You should be comfortable working independently and taking responsibility for a job rather than needing every individual step explained.

The right person will have:

- Strong cabinet and furniture construction skills
- Confidence using traditional woodworking machinery and hand tools
- Good understanding of how furniture should be constructed
- Strong attention to detail
- The ability to keep work square, clean and accurate
- Experience fitting doors, drawers, shelves and hardware
- A good eye for proportion and how a finished piece should look
- The ability to think through unusual custom jobs and find practical solutions
- Pride in your workmanship

Solid timber experience is particularly valuable.

What This Role Isn't

This isn't a CNC operator position.

It isn't repetitive factory work where you stand at one machine all day.

It isn't a design-office position.





And we aren't looking for someone who can only assemble pre-cut flat-pack cabinets from a numbered plan.

We're looking for a furniture maker.

Someone who enjoys walking into the workshop with a pile of timber and materials and walking out with a finished piece of furniture.

Some jobs are straightforward cabinets and boxes.

Others require a bit of creativity, judgement and old-fashioned craftsmanship to get them right.

That's a big part of what makes the job compelling.

Why Jimmy & Ross?

You'll get variety.

One week you might be building a large wall-to-wall bookcase. The next could be a buffet, entertainment unit, custom cabinet, table or something completely different that a customer has asked us to make.

We want to continue growing our Australian-made range and our custom furniture capability, and a good furniture maker will become an important part of that.

We offer:

- Full-time work
- Long-term stable position
- Variety rather than repetitive production work
- Genuine custom furniture projects
- A workshop where practical skill and experience are valued
- Opportunity to take ownership of jobs
- Competitive pay based on experience and capability
- Opportunity to grow with the business
