This is an opportunity to join a multi-disciplined historic building contractor working on listed buildings, churches and ancient monuments. Their in-house skills include stone masonry (production, repair and conservation work), metalwork, stained glass, and joinery. They mainly work in the North West of England, Wales and the West Midlands, but sometimes work much further afield. They are looking for an experienced Stone Mason.
You will be qualified to NVQ Level 3 (or equivalent) and have solid experience in all aspects of masonry work, from design and templating through to banker work and site fixing work. You will also have experience repairing and conserving stonework using a variety of techniques. You must hold a CSCS Card relevant to your trade. Their team is flexible - you must be prepared to work both out on site and at the workshop as required, as well as being prepared to assist other in-house craftsmen in their related occupations as and when the need arises.
Your work base will be just outside Chester, but you must be prepared to travel to sites further afield as required. You must have a full UK driving licence or equivalent and be willing to drive company vehicles if requested. You will be smart, polite and able to deal with clients on a day to day basis. You will have a can-do attitude, be hard working and be able to produce work of the highest standard consistently.
You will be joining a close-knit team of highly-skilled craftsmen and women and will be expected to work with the team as well as under your own steam.
