Experienced Oak Frame Carpenter
Location: Tetbury, Gloucestershire
Salary: Competitive, depending on experience
Timberpride is a long-established and respected oak framing company with an excellent reputation for quality craftsmanship. Due to continued growth, we are looking for an experienced Oak Frame Carpenter to join our skilled and friendly team.
We specialise in the design and manufacture of bespoke oak-framed buildings, producing everything in-house—from milling the oak through to manufacturing, raising frames on site, and fitting direct glazing.

- Working from technical drawings
- Setting out and manufacturing oak frames
- Raising frames on site
- Fitting direct glazing
- Supporting the wider team with associated tasks
Our projects include complete roof structures, extensions, garages, garden rooms, and orangeries. Most work is carried out within a 30–50 mile radius of Tetbury, often even closer to home.

- Can work accurately from drawings
- Takes pride in producing work to a high standard
