YOUR LIFE AS A WALLPAPER HANGING TECHNICIAN

This wallpapering position in our skilled trade typically works 7:00 AM - 3:30 PM with some flexibility for occasional night and weekend hours as required. This position is a traveling position and expenses are covered! We have new jobs in WI and GA.

As a traveling Wallpaper Hanging Technician, you have the vital skills we need to provide our clients with the stunning wall finishings they're looking for. Your days are busy as you tackle the variety of tasks it takes to transform a room. Before you begin your wallpaper hanging, you measure the walls and ceiling to compute the correct number of strips. Another essential task is to set up your equipment, including the pasting table, scaffolding, and pasting machine. You prepare the surface carefully, taking off old wallpaper, when necessary, then set to work applying the new wall covering.

Attentive to detail, you use all the tricks of your skilled trade to apply each type of wall covering in the proper way. Well-versed in techniques like double cutting, booking, and trimming, you are methodical and precise. Occasionally, you step back to admire the effect, and there's no denying that you're a wiz in your skilled trade. You can't help but be proud of your ability to breathe new life into a room!

WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU

• 3 years of experience OR an equivalent combination of education and experience
• Experience with commercial-grade products and pasting machines
• Knowledge about various wall coverings, such as grasscloth, foil, fabric, and murals
• Mathematical proficiency
• Technological proficiency, including email, internet, and camera skills

If you can meet these requirements and enjoy traveling for work, we would be happy to have you as part of our team!
