We are seeking full-time, year-round Marine Vessel Painters. The primary responsibility of a Marine Painter is to apply protective coatings to marine vessels and structures. Candidates must be skilled in sandblasting, spraying, or hand-painting for both repair work and fabrication tasks. This position requires strong attention to detail, knowledge of various coating systems (including anti-fouling), and the ability to work safely in potentially challenging outdoor environments. Painters will work on marine railways and aboard steel vessels ranging from 50 to 200 feet in length, excluding yachts, fiberglass, or wooden vessels. Additionally, work may occur inside vessels, possibly in tight quarters or within workshops. The role may involve using various lifting equipment (training will be provided) and wearing respiratory protective equipment. Marine Painters will also participate in all aspects of the marine railway operations, including blocking, hauling, mooring, and launching vessels, as well as general shipyard cleanup and maintenance duties. Strict adherence to environmental and safety procedures is essential.
