Spray Painter and Panel Beater
Visa sponsorship
Automotive · Auckland, New Zealand · Full-Time · $30 - $35/hr · Visa: Employer sponsored
A growing automotive workshop in Auckland is adding Panel Beaters and Spray Painters to its team. It wants people with real workshop experience behind them who can take a car from damage to final coat without someone checking every step.
You will repair bodywork on many makes and models, fix rust, prep surfaces and refinish panels to a clean standard, and keep jobs moving to agreed deadlines. The workshop also prepares race cars and helps out at events and track days, so the work has variety. Sponsorship is available for suitable international candidates.
Your CV should show the paint systems you know, the rust and body repairs you have done and the workshops you have worked in. Refresh an Auckland body-shop refinisher CV with Build AI CV and send it over.
