Shuel Construction Ltd is an established social housing and public sector maintenance contractor. We're looking for an experienced Carpet Fitter to join us on Ministry of Defence sites in Blandford and Poole, Dorset — on a self-employed/subcontract basis.

* Supply and fit carpet tiles, broadloom carpet, underlay, and gripper rods across MOD/government building interiors
* Measure, cut, and install to a high standard in occupied and operational environments
* Work within site access rules and comply with MOD security requirements at all times
* Liaise professionally with site managers and our operations team
What you need — non-negotiable
* Standard DBS check — essential. Required for access to MOD and government sites; applications cannot be progressed without this
* Proven carpet fitting experience across commercial or public sector projects
* Reliable, punctual, and able to work independently on site
* Own transport (strongly preferred)
Desirable (not essential)
* CSCS card
* Experience working on government, MOD, or secure-access sites
What Shuel Construction offers
* Consistent, ongoing work from an established public sector contractor
* Competitive self-employed rates
* Straightforward working relationship — easy to deal with, pay on time
* A foot in the door of MOD/government contract work
