  • Keeping work areas spotless and showing respect for our clients’ spaces.

  • Pitching in with your team to deliver results across Tasman sites – sometimes in unique and high-security environments.

  • Championing safety at every step, from PPE to hazard spotting and incident reporting.

What we’re looking for

  • Solid painting and decorating skills – whether you’re trade qualified or have hands-on experience.

  • A sharp eye for detail and pride in producing work you’d sign your name to.

  • A safety-first mindset and commitment to doing the job right.

  • A can-do team player who communicates well and supports others.

  • Reliability, professionalism, and the flexibility to take on varied tasks.
