ARE YOU A GOOD FIT?
We are looking for top-notch talent to finish unique and outstanding custom products. As Assistant Finisher you will have the opportunity to work on a wide range of visual projects in one of our highest volume departments. But, rest assured, it is a supportive team environment focused on collaboration and success. Every day is unique as you take our products through the finishing process. The ideal candidate is reliable, will be able to follow directions, complete tasks accurately and on time, and follow shop safety and PPE rules closely.
We are looking for someone who is motivated to do quality work safely and productively. Do you have a passion for working with your hands and an outstanding attention to detail? Do you have a positive, can-do attitude? Are you looking for more than just a job? Do you present yourself professionally? Are you cooperative and great at teamwork, but able to work solo too? Do you take pride in a job well done? If so, please apply!
You are friendly, a good communicator, and you keep your workspace clean. You’re quick to pitch in, as we’re a full function team that helps each other wherever needed and cross-training is the name of the game; you are ready and willing to learn. You feel accomplished by the finished product and knowing our clients are happy, in part due to your work!
WHAT THE WORK ENTAILS
Work independently or part of a team. Follow outlined procedures & processes to achieve desired finishes. Sand, prep and mask surfaces for paint application. Use fillers (Bondo, putty, etc.). Drill, set hooks, hang or load product on carts. Organize and queue product for the paint booths. Mix and apply primers, sealants and finishes under supervision. Operate DA sanders, paint sprayers, blow guns, paint brushes and other painting tools. Assist lead painters. Ensure the products meet established quality and safety standards. Flag concerns and defects. Collaborate with other team members to meet production goals and deadlines.
Assistant Finishers are often exposed to loud noises, contaminants, fumes and hazardous work equipment around the shop, making PPE required. They must be able to stand for long periods of time and make repetitive movements, as well as bending and twisting. This role requires physical stamina, mobility and strength to lift and move materials. It also requires an ability to work with hand tools, power tools, and finishing materials. Employees must take care with health and safety standards and promote a positive and proactive work environment.
If this is the work you enjoy, you’ll need to meet the following requirements: previous experience in a similar role, manufacturing, or shop environment. You’ll need to be willing to ask questions, are accountable, detail-oriented, and have excellent time management skills. Computer skills are helpful; we have in-shop computers to access plans and project details. Must have a reliable means to get to work, driver’s license not required. Must be willing to be flexible with your schedule and work overtime hours, as needed, which can be long days or weekend work.
