Job description:
  • We are looking for a skilled labourer. The role will be to assist with the installation of stone steps with a view to being trained up to become an all-round fixer mason.
  • Ideally we’d like someone who has worked in the stone masonry industry and knows about cutting stone, installing it, working to very small tolerances and achieving very high standards of finish.
  • The labourer makes the site tick and we’re looking for a good one!
  • If you don’t have experience in  our industry, we are also looking for someone with potential to become skilled labour.
  • We see this role as 80% attitude and 20% ability. If you have the right attitude you can learn the skills needed. Yes, some basic knowledge is great – how to mix cement to different gauges, how to change blades on grinders etc but reliability and loyalty are also important.
  • One of the people we currently employ in this role knew nothing about stone masonry when he started with us, but by showing a great positive attitude he’s learnt a lot of skills, and has grown in confidence.
Responsibilities include:
  • General labouring duties on building sites.
  • Light demolition. Brickwork, stone installation and rendering.
  • Cutting stone, mixing cement and laying stone.
  • The opportunity to learn new skills such as welding and drainage.
Requirements:
  • Two telephone references – people you’ve worked with. Some of the best people we’ve worked with don’t have any specific qualifications but could provide references who would endorse their skills.
  • A UTR number and NI Number.
