Painter & Decorator

Hays are looking for a Painter & Decorator for a domestic project in Penicuik, working for a contractor.

Your new company
You will be working for a local contractor who specialises in domestic & commercial maintenance across Edinburgh & the Lothians. Due to an increase in demand, we are looking to speak to qualified Painters & Decorators for an ongoing contract.
Your new role
You will initially be working on domestic properties in the Midlothian area, helping complete the project. Your duties may include:

• Surface Preparation: Clean, scrape, sand, and repair surfaces to ensure they are ready for painting.
• Prime surfaces & paint walls & ceilings using brushes, rollers, or sprayers to apply paint, varnish, and other finishes to surfaces.
• Protecting Work Areas: Cover furniture, floors, and other items with clothes or protective plastic to prevent damage.
• Minor Repairs: Fix minor damage such as cracks and holes before painting or wallpapering.

What you’ll need to succeed
We are looking to speak to time-served/SVQ qualified painters who are looking for their next role. As the position is mobile, you will potentially be given a work van as the contract progresses. Therefore, you will need a valid UK Driving Licence. As this role is in existing buildings, you do NOT need a CSCS card.
What you’ll get in return
You will be offered an immediate start before Christmas with work confirmed into the new year. Hays will pay you weekly with the option for accrued annual leave, and you will receive regular updates from your Hays consultant.
