Plasterer Job Description
Recruiting Today is partnering with a leading construction contractor in Greenwich SE10 to find a reliable, experienced Plasterer for an immediate start. The project involves high-quality interior finishing work on a new residential development, requiring precision, speed, and an eye for detail.

We manage the recruitment process efficiently, so you can focus on your craft while we handle the admin, payroll, and liaison.
Key Responsibilities & Duties
- Applying plaster to interior walls, ceilings, and partitions to a smooth, finished standard ready for decoration.
- Preparing surfaces by fixing beads, scrimming joints, and applying bonding coats as necessary.
- Working from specifications and drawings to meet project deadlines and quality benchmarks.
- Mixing plastering materials to the correct consistency and ensuring materials are used efficiently.
- Maintaining a clean, safe, and organised work area in compliance with site health and safety regulations.
- Collaborating with other trades on site, such as Demolition Labourers / Operatives, carpenters, and electricians, to ensure workflow is seamless.
