We are seeking Tower Painting Trades Workers to join our team in the Greater Wellington Region.

You must have at least 3 years relevant work experience or qualification equivalent to NZQF Level 4 or above.

This role requires knowledge of painting techniques and the ability to safely work at heights.

Duties:
  • Prepare surfaces for painting, including cleaning, sanding, priming, and removing rust or old coatings, ensuring surfaces are ready for the application of paint or coatings.
  • Apply a variety of coatings and finishes to metal, steel, and other materials using brushes, rollers, and spray equipment.
  • Work at heights using ropes, harnesses, and scaffolding systems to access towers, transmission lines, and other elevated structures.

  • Handle and manage painting materials, including mixing paints and coatings according to specifications.
  • Maintain and care for tools and equipment, ensuring all gear is in good working condition.
