- Maintain a clean and safe working area in line with H&S and site rules.
- Liaise professionally with site managers, supervisors and other trades.
- Accurately record and report progress on your areas/plots.
Requirements
- Proven experience as a Painter & Decorator on UK construction sites.
- Own tools and brushes suitable for professional site work.
- Ability to travel to Milton Keynes daily and to future sites as needed.
- Valid CSCS card (preferred/usually required for main contractor sites).

- Ability to work independently and as part of a wider site team.
- Right to work in the UK and appropriate self-employed status (CIS/UTR, etc.).
- References or photos of previous work are highly desirable.
What We Offer
- Consistent work for the duration of the Milton Keynes project.
- The opportunity to move onto new projects with us as sites come online.
