Fabric Technician (Painting & Decorating)

The Fabric Technician is the guardian of our building's physical environment. This role is a unique blend of skilled craftsmanship and safety leadership, requiring someone who is as comfortable with a drill and a paintbrush as they are managing safety compliance and risk assessments. You will be the primary point of contact for all interior maintenance, ensuring the workspace remains high-functioning, aesthetically polished, and most importantly safe for all occupants.

What You'll Be Doing

● Carry out professional painting, decorating, drywall repairs, and sealant applications for both minor touch-ups and full refreshes.
● Manage the replacement of carpet tiles, raised flooring, and suspended ceilings, ensuring the building fabric remains in top condition.
● Carry out professional painting, decorating, drywall repairs, and sealant applications for both minor touch-ups and full refreshes.
● Conduct regular fabric condition surveys to eliminate hazards, draft technical RAMS, and secure permits for high-risk activities like working at height.
● Oversee specialist subcontractors for major structural or glazing works, ensuring they adhere to site safety protocols and quality standards.
● Respond to ad-hoc requests such as installing shelving, whiteboards, and racking, or assembling furniture to meet evolving team needs.

What We're Looking For

● Proven experience in building fabric maintenance, specifically within carpentry, painting, and general repairs.
● A thorough understanding of fire safety regulations, particularly regarding fire door gaps, seals, and closers.
● The ability to spot potential trip hazards or defects before they become issues, maintaining a proactive rather than reactive workflow.
● Comfortable navigating safety documentation, including the creation of Risk Assessments and Method Statements (RAMS).
● Strong interpersonal skills to manage client expectations and supervise external vendors effectively.
● A technician who takes pride in the quality of their finish and can manage a varied workload with minimal supervision.
