Job Description

Skilled Millwork Painter & Finisher
​Are you a craftsman with a sharp eye for detail and a passion for bringing high-end woodwork to life? We are looking for an experienced Millwork Painter / Finisher to join our production team and help us deliver exceptional quality to our clients.

​The Role
​In this position, you will be responsible for the final transformation of custom cabinetry, trim, and architectural millwork. You won’t just be "painting"; you’ll be applying high-performance finishes that protect and enhance premium wood products.

​Key Responsibilities
​Surface Preparation: Expertly sand, fill, and prep raw wood and MDF surfaces for a flawless finish.
​Spray Application: Operate and maintain HVLP, airless, or air-assisted spray systems to apply primers, paints, stains, and clear coats.
​Color Matching: Ensure consistency across batches and perform custom stain matching as needed.
​Finishing Techniques: Execute multi-step finishes, including glazing, distressing, or high-gloss polishing.
​Quality Control: Inspect finished pieces for runs, debris, or uneven coverage before they leave the shop.
​What We’re Looking For
​Experience: Minimum of 2 years of professional experience specifically in millwork, cabinetry, or furniture finishing.
​Technical Skill: Proficient with various spray equipment and knowledge of solvent-based and waterborne coatings.
​Attention to Detail: You take pride in a "mirror" finish and understand that the difference is in the prep work.
​Reliability: Ability to manage a steady workflow and meet project deadlines in a shop environment.
​Why Join Us?
​Competitive hourly pay based on experience.
​Consistent, year-round indoor work (no chasing the weather).
​A professional shop environment with high-quality equipment.
​Opportunities for growth within a dedicated team of craftsmen.
​How to Apply
​If you have the experience and the drive to produce top-tier work, we want to hear from you. Please send your resume and, if available, photos of your recent finishing projects to office@thecabinetshopllc.com.
