About this job

We’re on the lookout for another apprentice to join our small team in North Canterbury. If you’ve got good energy, enjoy hands-on work, and want to be part of a genuinely positive work environment, this could be the one for you.

We’re a great wee business that takes pride in what we build and how we treat our people. The work is enjoyable, varied, and rewarding — no boring days here.

About the role: You’ll be primarily building new portable homes from the ground up. Work includes foundations, timber subfloors, framing, and jibbing — all done in-house. You’ll be involved in the full build process, not just one small part.

About you: - An early-career candidate with some building experience who’s motivated to grow their skills through an apprenticeship. - Keen to learn, reliable, and not afraid of hard work. - Positive attitude and good banter - Happy to get stuck in and take pride in quality workmanship. - We’re seeking a motivated and reliable team member who shows up consistently, works hard, and takes pride in their work.

Immediate start available. Travel will be required from time to time.

If this sounds like you and you want to work in a supportive, down-to-earth environment, we’d love to hear from you.
