Job description

At Mitie, we believe exceptional things happen when places are cared for. As the UK’s No.16 Top Apprenticeship Employer, we’re shaping futures by shaping environments; empowering people, strengthening communities and helping society thrive. Ready to start making places work better every day?

As an Apprentice Painter and Decorator with Mitie Property Services, you'll be at the heart of delivering high-quality refurbishment and property improvement projects across the East and West Midlands.

Working alongside experienced decorators, you'll gain hands-on experience across a variety of sectors including social housing, healthcare, education, commercial, defence and heritage buildings.

Here's a glimpse of what your journey could include:

  • Developing core skills and knowledge to carry out internal and external painting and decorating works, including surface preparation, filling, sanding and minor repairs prior to decoration
  • Supporting planned and cyclical painting programmes, refurbishment projects, property improvements and building fabric repairs
  • Learning how to safely use industry-standard tools, equipment and specialist decorating materials
  • Working alongside experienced decorators and tradespeople to deliver high-quality workmanship and excellent customer service
  • Travelling with your Nottingham-based team to sites across the East and West Midlands, gaining experience on a variety of projects and environments

As part of your apprenticeship, you will be enrolled onto a Level 2 Painter and Decorator Apprenticeship with Nottingham College, which typically takes around two years to complete.

You will be fully supported throughout your apprenticeship through a combination of college learning, on-the-job training, e-learning materials and guidance from experienced industry professionals.
