Experienced Roofer
About Us
Bain & Irvine Ltd has been doing things the right way since 1946. We are a growing company with a strong reputation for high-quality craftsmanship, operating out of our offices in the Borders (Peebles) and our new location in Edinburgh (Musselburgh).
We know a roofing firm is only as good as the team on the tools. We hold top industry accreditations, including NFRC, SafeContractor, CHAS Elite, and Constructionline Gold—because we take our work and our safety seriously. We aren't about cutting corners; we are about steady work, high professional standards, and looking after the people who get the job done.
The Role & Career Growth
We are expanding our team and looking for experienced roofers who want to be part of a solid, professional setup. You will be working on a variety of projects across the whole country, specialising in heritage slate and flat roofing. (Note: While slating is a core part of what we do, if your skills go beyond this, we would still love to hear from you).
If you are tired of working for inconsistent or substandard contractors and want to join a firm where you can get your head down and do a proper job, this is for you.
More importantly, we want our people to grow. As a growing business, there are excellent opportunities for career progression. We actively invest in our team through fully funded, industry-led training backed by recognised industry bodies, meaning you will always have the chance to develop your skills and advance your career with us.
