Builder

Trade Recruit is currently looking for an experienced and highly capable Builder / Multi-Trade Operative on behalf of a well-established residential building company specialising in extensions, loft conversions, and property alterations.

This is an excellent long-term opportunity for a skilled all-rounder who can work independently, take ownership of tasks on site, and confidently carry out a variety of structural and general building works to a high standard.

The client is ideally looking for a permanent PAYE employee; however long-term subcontract arrangements will also be considered for the right candidate.

The Role

This is a varied hands-on position working across residential projects including:

• Extensions

• Insulation works
• General building and rip-outs

The successful candidate will:

• Have extensive experience within residential building projects
• Be confident carrying out structural and alteration works independently
