Job Description
🚀 Just Finished School or Starting Your Career? Want a Skill That Actually Pays Off?
If you’re early in your career and thinking “I don’t just want a job — I want to build something I can get good at”… this is for you.
We’re a local painting company adding a Wallpaper Apprentice to our team — and this is one of those rare chances to step into a skilled trade where you actually learn something valuable, hands-on, from day one.
At LuxBrush Painting Company, we don’t just hire workers — we train craftspeople.
So what is this really?
Ever looked at high-end interiors and thought:
- “How do they get wallpaper to look that perfect?”
- “Is that a real skill or just something people figure out?”
- “Could I learn something like that and actually build a career?”
That’s exactly what this role is.
You’ll start as an apprentice working side-by-side with experienced installers learning a trade most people never even get exposed to.
🔧 What you’ll actually be doing
- Working on real residential and commercial projects
- Learning wallpaper installation step-by-step
- Measuring, cutting, and pattern matching (this is the craft part)
- Prepping walls so finishes look flawless
- Using your painting/prep skills in high-end finish work
- Keeping job sites clean, organized, and professional
- Seeing your work instantly show up in real homes and businesses
This is hands-on work — not sitting around watching someone else do it.
🎯 Who this is perfect for
This could be a great fit if you’re thinking:
- “I want to learn a real trade, not just bounce between jobs”
- “I like working with my hands and seeing results”
- “I don’t mind physical work if I’m learning something valuable”
- “I want a career path, not just a paycheck”
Painting, sanding, patching, or job site experience helps — but it’s not required.
We’ll teach you the wallpaper side if you bring the right attitude.
đź§ What matters most here
- Are you willing to learn something new?
- Do you care about doing detailed, quality work?
- Can you show up on time and be dependable?
- Do you take pride in what you build with your hands?
Skill can be taught. Work ethic can’t.
🎓 Why this is different
Most entry-level jobs feel like you’re just “helping out.”
This one is different.
You’re learning a specialized trade skill that can turn into:
- Advanced installer roles
- High-end finish work
- Long-term career in skilled trades
You’ll actually see your progress in real time — wall by wall, project by project.
📍 What we’re looking for
- Some painting or prep experience is a plus
- Interest in wallpaper/finish carpentry style work
- Strong work ethic and willingness to learn
- Detail-oriented mindset
- Dependable and punctual
- Comfortable with ladders and physical work
- Driver’s license preferred
Bottom line
If you want:
- A real skill
- Real hands-on training
- And a career you can actually build on
…this is worth a conversation.
Apply and let’s get you started in something you can grow into, not out of.
