We’re looking for a De-Snag Painter with a strong eye for detail and real pride in finish quality. This role sits at the final stage of production, making sure vehicles are completed to a high standard before they move on.

You’ll be working on large commercial refuse vehicles, carrying out detailed cosmetic repairs and ensuring any imperfections are corrected before sign-off. The role requires patience, accuracy, and the ability to work around fully built vehicles where access can be tight and surfaces need careful handling.

Typical work will include:

• Identifying and rectifying paint defects such as runs, dry spray, contamination, scratches, and minor damage
• Carrying out localised repairs and blending to achieve a consistent finish
• Masking areas correctly to protect surrounding components during repair work
• Flatting, polishing, and preparing surfaces to restore paint quality
• Inspecting vehicles thoroughly to ensure all snags are corrected before release
• Working around fully assembled refuse vehicles, including body panels, chassis areas, and hoppers
• Ensuring all work meets strict quality standards at final inspection stage

What we’re looking for

• Experience in paint production, de-snagging, or vehicle refinishing
• Experience working on commercial vehicles (desirable)
• Strong knowledge of surface preparation and defect correction
• Ability to work independently and manage workload
• Good understanding of health & safety in a paint environment
• High attention to detail and pride in finish quality
• Comfortable working in confined or awkward positions around large vehicles

Why this role works

• Hands-on, varied work with full vehicles
• Responsibility for final quality before dispatch
• Opportunity to develop finishing and repair skills
• Overtime available when required
