Summary
Commercial builds and supports vehicles for essential sectors such as fire, utility, towing, municipalities and more. We rely every day on our production team members, such as our Painters, to contribute to the team that builds, assembles, and finishes vehicles for these vital customers. We’re looking for a Painter to join the Commercial team at our Delta branch and undertake the important work of prep and apply primer, paint, and industrial coatings for our world-class utility vehicles.

The successful candidate will have an exceptional eye for detail, high standards, and a “do it right the first time” attitude.

Preference will be given to applicants with experience painting larger vehicles and applying undercoating/industrial coatings, however we encourage all candidates with interest and adjacent experience to apply.
