Job Title: Mobile Upholstery Technician
About Upholstery2u
We’re not your average upholstery company. Upholstery2u is a fully mobile, on-the-go service that takes the workshop on the road, bringing expert furniture and equipment repair straight to the customer’s door.
From gyms to hospitals, cafes to care homes — if it’s padded and torn, we’ll fix it. Fast, friendly, and right there on site.
We’re growing fast and looking for skilled, practical people to join our team.
What You'll Be Doing
Your new mobile office? A custom-fitted repair van stacked with all the tools and materials you need.
You'll be driving to different client sites each day and patching, repairing, re-covering, and restoring gym pads to its former glory. No two days are the same.
On a typical day, you’ll be:
- Rolling up to sites in your branded mobile workshop van, tools at the ready.
- Assessing damage and diving into repairs – ripped gym pads, worn-out medical chairs, restaurant seating, you name it.
- Using industrial sewing machines, staple guns and more.
- Chatting with clients, offering solutions, and leaving them impressed.
- Keeping your van tidy and stocked
- Logging jobs and uploading before/after pics via our mobile app
- Getting stuff done — solo, efficiently, and with pride
Who You Are
You’re practical, reliable, and enjoy working with your hands. You might already be in upholstery, carpentry, furniture repair, or something similar — and you love seeing instant results from your work.
You’ll fit right in if you:
- Know your way around tools and fabrics (or are a fast learner)
- Night shifts
- Have a good eye for detail and take pride in a job well done
- Are confident working solo and managing your day
- Enjoy being on the move and meeting new people
- Can drive a van (full UK driving license required)
- Don’t mind getting your hands dirty — you’d rather be fixing than sitting at a desk
Bonus points if you’ve used an industrial sewing machine or done upholstery work before — but full training is provided if you’ve got the right attitude.
What You Get
We take care of our team. You’ll get:
- A fully equipped mobile workshop van
- Tools, training, and top-notch gear – all provided
- Paid holidays
- App-based job tracking — no paperwork nightmares
- Company pension
- Overnight expenses covered when needed
- Opportunities to grow with a fast-moving, nationwide business
Final Word
This isn’t a 9-to-5, sit-at-a-workbench kind of job. This is on-the-road craftsmanship, solving real problems, one repair at a time. You’ll get variety, freedom, and the satisfaction of seeing things go from wrecked to wow.
If you’re hands-on, practical, and ready to hit the road — we want to hear from you.
