Site Fitting Assistant – Build Your Future with Westbury
Join a Team That Creates Exceptional Spaces

For over 30 years, Westbury, together with our sister company Westbury Windows & Joinery, has been manufacturing and installing premium-quality garden rooms, roof lanterns, and bespoke timber windows and doors for clients across the UK and beyond.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys hands-on work, takes pride in a job well done, and wants to learn valuable trade skills while working on high-end projects.
We are particularly interested in candidates living in or around the Wickford / South Woodham Ferrers area to assist with shared travel arrangements.
