Painter Wanted – Build Your Own Painting Division
Most painters spend years on the tools but never get the opportunity to build something of their own.
They're stuck chasing invoices, quoting jobs at night, and dealing with paperwork instead of focusing on the work they actually enjoy.
We're offering something different.
We're looking for a high-performing painter who wants to step up and build and lead the painting division inside our construction group.
This is not just another job — it's an opportunity to grow a painting business with the backing of an established building company.
You'll start with immediate work from our renovation, insurance and repair projects, while taking responsibility for managing painting works across our projects.
Over time, you'll build your own team, manage projects, and grow the painting division.
The right person will have the opportunity to become a partner in the painting division within 12 months.
You focus on quality work, leadership and growth, we support you with systems, admin, marketing and workflow.
With us, you'll have:
• Constant workflow from our construction repairs and renovation projects
• Admin and accounts team handling paperwork
• Established systems and project pipeline
• Support from an experienced construction business
• Opportunity to build your own team and division
We're a North Brisbane-based construction company specialising in renovations, insurance repairs and maintenance projects.
We run multiple construction divisions and are now looking for the right leader to grow our painting arm into a major part of the business.
This role is ideal for someone who:
• Is an experienced painter with leadership ambitions
• May already be a sole trader looking to expand
• Takes pride in quality work and professionalism
• Wants to build and lead a team
• Is motivated by growth, opportunity and ownership
Requirements:
• Queensland Painting Contractor Licence
• 5+ years of experience in residential/commercial painting
• Strong organisational and estimating ability
• Good communication and leadership skills

Own a Ute or van

• Consistent pipeline of work
• Admin and accounts support
• Career progression into leadership
• Competitive salary + 12% super
• Holiday and sick pay
• Opportunity to become a part-owner of the painting division
If you're the type of painter who wants to build something bigger than just another job, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for.
We're not looking for someone to just fill a role, we're looking for someone to build a business with us to go along with our electrical jopinery and construction arms
