Job Description

Worker Finder is recruiting an experienced Bench Joiner for an immediate start with a busy joinery workshop based near Milton Keynes. This is a hands-on role for a skilled tradesperson who is confident working from technical drawings to produce bespoke kitchens, fitted wardrobes, worktop joinery, bathroom and laundry joinery to a high standard.

The successful candidate will be comfortable operating a Festool Domino DF 500 Q and/or Festool Domino DF 700 for mortise-and-tenon and dowel joints, along with general use of a benchtop jointer, wood jointer, and dowel/doweling joiner equipment (Lamello Zeta P2, Makita PJ7000, DeWalt DW682K or similar) as part of daily production work. Familiarity with edge jointing, dual-spindle doweling machines, and cutting jigs such as a Festool domino cross stop is a strong advantage, though full training on specific machinery can be provided for the right candidate.

Day-to-day duties include: cutting and assembling joinery components, setting up and maintaining domino and dowel jointing equipment, working to tight tolerances and deadlines, quality-checking finished pieces, and liaising with the workshop supervisor on production schedules.

What We’re Looking For

• Previous bench joinery experience in a workshop environment
• Practical experience with domino joiners, dowel jointers, or benchtop jointers
• Ability to read technical/cutting-list drawings accurately
• Own basic hand tools (workshop machinery provided)
• Reliable, punctual, and comfortable working to production targets
