Dada Flooring is seeking an experienced carpenter to join the business on a full-time, long-term basis.
The position focuses primarily on timber subfloor preparation, floor repairs, joists and remedial carpentry. Experience installing timber flooring is advantageous, but candidates are not expected to be specialists in every service Dada Flooring provides.
This is not a position for general labourers, apprentices or trainees. Applicants must have at least three years of professional carpentry experience.

Essential requirements
- At least three years of professional carpentry experience
- Practical experience preparing or repairing timber floors and subfloors
- Ability to work accurately, independently and professionally in customers’ properties
You must also be reliable, organised, attentive to detail and respectful of customers’ homes and businesses.
