Carpet Layer
Visa sponsorship
Trade · Auckland, New Zealand · Full-Time · Discussed at interview · Visa: Employer sponsored
Quality workmanship and good relationships with customers and colleagues are what this Auckland flooring business says it is built on, and it wants an experienced carpet layer for the long term. The firm is family-owned and operated, sits in a national flooring network and, as an Accredited Employer, can sponsor migrant workers.
From one base each day, you would complete installs for the business and its sister store on residential and commercial jobs, from preparing the floor to the final finish. The working week is Monday to Friday with a couple of Saturdays a month, and you would work next to an apprentice, so sharing what you know matters.
Applicants in Dar es Salaam or Arusha can put together a flooring CV with Build AI CV that shows the carpets you have laid, how you run a job and any tickets or training you hold.
