Payment Terms: Premium Hourly Rates (Weekly Pay)
Start Date: Immediate (Subject to reference and credential verification)
Position Type: Full-Time Contract
Duration: Ongoing long-term work
The Opportunity
Search Consultancy's Construction and Trades Division is currently partnering with leading regional contractors to recruit time-served, highly skilled Painters & Decorators for active developments across Northumberland.
We are currently managing multiple high-volume contracts-ranging from large-scale commercial builds to busy housing developments-offering immediate starts and consistent, ongoing runs of local work. The projects demand tradespeople who possess a meticulous eye for detail, a strong work ethic, and the ability to maintain exceptional production rates without compromising on quality. For reliable, professional decorators, these positions offer excellent stability and long-term continuity of work close to home.
Remuneration & Financials
Competitive Pay: Premium, fully transparent rates tailored to your experience and payment structure (CIS)
Payment Frequency: Processed accurately every single Friday via our dedicated payroll desk, ensuring reliable weekly cash flow with zero hidden administrative or umbrella fees.
Comprehensive Key Responsibilities
Operating within fast-paced commercial and residential environments, your daily schedule will demand high efficiency, technical competence, and seamless collaboration with site management and other trades. Your responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:
Exemplary Surface Preparation: Conducting thorough preparation of all substrates prior to paint application. This involves stripping old coatings, comprehensive washing down, filling voids, skim-coating imperfections, taping, and mechanical/hand sanding to achieve a perfectly flat, uniform surface.
Coating Application: Applying a wide array of premium trade emulsions, glosses, eggshells, acrylics, undercoats, and primers to internal and external walls, ceilings, architectural metalwork, and timber fixtures.
Precision Finishing: Utilising traditional brush and roller techniques to deliver flawless finishes, including razor-sharp cutting-in around fixtures, fittings, skirtings, and switches, ensuring no overlapping, runs, or roller marks.
Snagging & Pre-Handover Detailing: Methodically executing final touch-ups, glossing, and snagging schedules to meet the stringent quality standards required by the client prior to final handover.
Health & Safety Compliance: Strict adherence to site safety protocols, including Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) guidelines when dealing with solvent-based materials. Maintaining a clean, hazard-free workspace to protect yourself and other trades.
Rigid Candidate Requirements
To maintain the high standards required on these projects, candidates must explicitly meet the following criteria prior to deployment:
Valid CSCS Card: A valid Blue (Skilled Worker) or Gold (Advanced Craft/Supervisor) CSCS card is mandatory for site access and will be verified beforehand.
Industry Experience: A proven, demonstrable track record working as a commercial or high-volume residential Painter & Decorator. You must be comfortable working on large-scale site footprints.
Complete Kit & Trade Whites: Possession of a full, professional kit (including a comprehensive range of brushes, rollers, extension poles, filling knives, caulking guns, and drop cloths) along with standard professional painter's whites.
Full 5-Point PPE: Ownership of standard site protective equipment (Hard hat, high-vis jacket/vest, steel toe-cap boots with adequate ankle support, protective gloves, and safety glasses).
Professional References: Ability to provide the contact details of a recent Site Manager, foreman, or supervisor who can verify your quality of finish, punctuality, and attendance.
Right to Work: Verifiable right to work within the United Kingdom.
Why Partner with Search Consultancy?
Local Stability: These contracts are based entirely within the Northumberland area, offering a reliable local commute and significantly reducing your travel overheads.
Dedicated Support: You will have a direct line to a specialist construction consultant who understands your trade and actively manages your contract.
The Search Pipeline: Search is a preferred labour supplier across the North East. Subcontractors who exhibit excellent reliability, punctuality, and top-tier craftsmanship are systematically prioritised for seamless transition onto subsequent long-term commercial and housing projects in the local area as existing contracts close out.
Search is an equal opportunities recruiter and we welcome applications from all suitably skilled or qualified applicants, regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/beliefs, sexual orientation or age
