Join a growing small team of young workers in our 36-year-old family business in Wangara, using various tools and machinery to manufacture high-quality solid timber beds. Work off customer orders to select, cut, prepare, trim and sand timber before joining, attaching brackets, oiling and packing in boxes for dispatch. Work as a team towards monthly production targets for a higher bonus.
Start off working full time and if we're both keen, you'll be offered an industry-recognised Apprenticeship through North Metro TAFE (Balga). For the right person, you could also simply work full-time long-term.
ALREADY AN APPRENTICE? This job is open to 1st, 2nd or 3rd-year apprentices too.
