- Ideally, experience in manufacturing, upholstery, or assembly
- Good attention to detail and a willingness to learn
- A positive, can-do attitude and the ability to work well in a team
- Strong practical skills and confidence using hand tools
- Reliability and pride in producing quality work
What We Offer:
- Full training from skilled upholsterers
- A friendly, close-knit working environment
- The chance to work on unique, design-led projects for well-known venues
- Opportunities to grow and develop your skills in the trade
- Job security in a growing and respected family business
