We're building luxury conversions on Mercedes V-Class and Sprinter platforms — think private-jet interiors on wheels: bespoke cabinetry, wrapped panelling, seating surrounds, flooring and lighting details where the gap lines matter and every edge gets looked at up close.
We need a carpenter whose finish work belongs in that world. You'll be templating and building units that fit curved van walls with barely a straight line in them, choosing materials that are light enough for the road and tough enough for daily use, and working alongside trimmers, electricians and mechanics to bring a whole interior together.
This is bench-and-vehicle work, not site work. If you've fitted out campers, boats, shopfits or high-end furniture and you obsess over the last millimetre, you'll fit right in.
What you'll do
- Template, build and fit bespoke cabinetry and panelling into V-Class and Sprinter interiors
- Scribe units to curved walls and uneven floors with tight, even gap lines
- Choose and work lightweight materials (poplar ply, laminates, veneers) that survive life on the road
- Build for real-world use — hinges, catches, drawers and fixings that don't rattle at 70mph
- Coordinate with electricians and trimmers so wiring, lighting and upholstery land where they should
- Take a build from drawings/photos to a finished interior with minimal supervision
- Keep the conversion bay clean, organised and safe
What we're looking for
- Time-served carpenter/joiner or cabinet maker with genuine finish-quality experience
- Vehicle, marine or campervan fit-out experience is a big advantage
- Comfortable templating and scribing to curved, out-of-square surfaces
- Understands weight matters in a vehicle — builds light without building flimsy
- Own hand and power tools
- Full UK driving licence
- Takes pride in the invisible details as much as the visible ones
