Joinery Draughtsman / CAD Draughtsman
James Wellesley Ltd
Location: Kent, ME8 7TZ (Motney Hill Road)
Salary: Competitive (DOE)
Job Type: Full-time, Permanent

Are you an experienced Joinery Draughtsman with advanced Autodesk Inventor skills? James Wellesley Ltd, a leading high-end bespoke joinery company, is seeking a talented and detail-oriented CAD professional to join our workshop team in Kent.

The Role

Reporting to the Head of Design & Draughting, you will play a key role in turning exceptional design concepts into precise, manufacturable reality. Your responsibilities will include:

Producing highly detailed technical construction drawings and workshop manufacturing drawings using Autodesk Inventor.
Converting design briefs, sketches, and concepts into accurate 3D models and 2D production drawings.
Creating comprehensive Bills of Materials (BOMs), cutting lists, and material purchase schedules.
Integrating third-party elements including ironmongery, appliances, hardware, glass, and metalwork.
Managing drawing revisions and version control through all project stages — from client approval to manufacturing and installation.
Ensuring all drawings comply with health & safety, installation, and quality standards.
Collaborating closely with Project Managers, workshop teams, and external designers/clients.
Attending site visits and design meetings as required.

About Us

James Wellesley Ltd specialises in the design, manufacture, and installation of bespoke, luxury joinery for London’s finest residences. Our work ranges from intricate fitted furniture and dressing rooms to fully integrated kitchens and statement architectural pieces. We pride ourselves on exceptional craftsmanship and delivering outstanding results for architects, interior designers, and private clients.

What We’re Looking For

Essential:

Proven experience as a Joinery Draughtsman or Furniture Draughtsman in a bespoke or high-end joinery environment.
Advanced, daily-user proficiency in Autodesk Inventor (essential).
Strong knowledge of joinery construction methods, materials (timber, veneers, laminates, solid surfaces, metals, glass), and finishing techniques.
Excellent attention to detail with the ability to produce accurate, manufacturing-ready drawings.
Good communication skills and the ability to liaise effectively with internal teams and clients.

Desirable:

Experience with SolidWorks or other 3D CAD systems (with willingness to transition fully to Inventor).

Why Join James Wellesley?

Work on prestigious, high-spec bespoke projects.
Join a skilled, passionate team in a well-equipped, modern Kent workshop.
Be part of a company that truly values technical excellence and craftsmanship.
Competitive salary, job security, and opportunities for long-term career growth.

If you’re a precise, solutions-focused Joinery Draughtsman who thrives on complex, luxury projects and wants to work with Inventor on a daily basis, we’d love to hear from you.
