About the Role:

As a plasterer, you’ll be responsible for completing one or more job’s per day to a consistently high standard, following agreed procedures and health and safety guidelines. Your day-to-day tasks will include preparing surfaces by cleaning and priming them, applying bonding agents, and fitting dry lining or plasterboard where needed.

You’ll also carry out restoration work on old or damaged plaster, carefully matching existing textures and finishes.

You’ll take ownership of construction, fault-finding, and maintenance tasks, aiming for first-time completion within budget and time constraints. Customer experience is central to the role, so maintaining a professional appearance, carrying company ID, and ensuring vehicles are clean and presentable is essential.
