Paint It Black
Painter - Qualified & Apprentice (Melbourne/Geelong) · Geelong, VIC · always_changing
You'd work as a painter for a company that paints new houses, repaints homes inside and out, and does bigger commercial jobs like shopping centres and childcare centres. The company has teams in Melbourne, Geelong and Colac, and a warehouse in Breakwater, so you could end up working on different sites in different suburbs. If you're already qualified you need a Certificate in Painting and Decorating and a Victorian driver's licence. If you're an apprentice, you just need to be doing or about to start an apprenticeship, and you'll be paid award rates.
