* Finishing & Snagging: Detailed touch-ups and final snagging to ensure every room is "handover ready" for the client.
* Productivity Driven: We need Painters used to the speed of new-build sites who can keep the program on track while maintaining a "snag-free" finish.
Requirements
* Qualifications: NVQ Level 2 or 3 in Painting & Decorating is highly desirable.
* CSCS Card: A valid Blue or Gold card is mandatory.
* Experience: Proven track record in "house bashing," commercial fit-outs, or high-volume residential work.
* Tools & PPE: Full professional kit (including whites, brushes, rollers, and extension poles) and standard 5-point PPE.
* Reliability: Must be able to work as part of a team or individually to hit strict plot deadlines.
* Right to Work: Must have a valid right to work in the UK.
Why Work With Search?
* Steady Pipeline: We work with the biggest names in North East construction; when one site finishes, we aim to move you straight to the next project in Newcastle.
* Weekly Pay: Reliable, on-time payments every Friday via CIS, PAYE, or Umbrella.
* Tyneside Experts: Our dedicated construction desk ensures you stay busy on local sites across Newcastle and the surrounding areas. Search is an equal opportunities recruiter and we welcome applications from all suitably skilled or qualified applicants, regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/beliefs, sexual orientation or age
