• Clean and maintain guns, equipment and accessories
• Keep the work area clean and follow health and safety procedures

What is required

• Minimum five years of experience in industrial painting
• Hands-on experience painting metal parts or equipment
• Command of the HVLP spray gun is required

• Ability to prepare and adjust products as needed
• Ability to achieve a uniform, quality finish
• Autonomy in setting up and operating the equipment

What counts as an asset

Experience in any of these environments will be considered an asset:

The conditions

• Two positions: one permanent full-time, one assignment of about a month

What the employer is looking for above all

Experienced, autonomous and meticulous industrial painters, able to take charge of their work from surface preparation through to finishing.

Command of the HVLP system is essential for this role. The employer is looking for people who can set up their own equipment, apply paint cleanly and evenly, and check the quality of the final result themselves.

Who can apply

You must be legally authorised to work in Canada. If you are not sure what your permit allows, tell us, checking that is our job.

We give priority to people already in Canada.
