Staircase Surveyor​/Bespoke Joiner; High-End

Position: Staircase Surveyor / Bespoke Joiner (High-End)
Senior Technical Operator / Measurer - Curved & High-End Staircases

Are you a skilled joiner, cabinet maker, or staircase craftsman with a passion for precision and an eye for high-end design? Do you enjoy a mix of hands-on site work, technical specification, and customer-facing conversations at the premium end of the market?

We're working with a well-established staircase manufacturer, expanding into curved staircases and high-end hardwood work, alongside their traditional range. Due to this growth into a higher-end market, they're looking for a Senior Technical Operator / Measurer to raise our technical standard and help lead this next chapter.

What You'll Be Doing:

Site Surveys & Design:

* Visiting residential and high-spec project sites across London and the Southeast

* Taking detailed measurements and designing staircases on-site, including curved and bespoke configurations

* Liaising directly with clients, builders, and site crews to ensure technical accuracy

* Producing designs and specifications to a premium standard, balancing client vision with engineering requirements

* Raising the existing team’s technical standard and providing backup capacity.

Office-Based Technical & Sales Support:

* Selling high-end staircase and joinery work directly to customers

* Advising on design solutions for curved staircases, curved handrails, and bespoke hardwood details

* Managing technical specification and project coordination from enquiry through to delivery

* Providing measuring backup and technical support across the wider team

What We're Looking For:

* Proven background in high-end, bespoke, or made-to-measure joinery, cabinet making, or staircase manufacture - production-line or standard-spec experience alone won't be enough

* Hands-on background - you've been on the tools and understand the craft at a premium finish standard

* Comfortable working to demanding tolerance and finish standards, with detail-focused, high-spec clients

* Curved staircases or curved handrail experience is a strong advantage - we're especially keen to hear from candidates with this background

* Track record on bespoke, one-off, or complex projects rather than repeat standard products

* Confident holding technical and design conversations with high-spec residential clients, architects, or interior designers

* Comfortable with technical specification and reading plans, ideally CAD

* Full UK driving licence, ideally based in Essex or within a reasonable commute of Bishops Stortford/Harlow.

What's On Offer?

* Up to £60,000 depending on experience and background

* Transport and all required measuring equipment

* Full-time, permanent - Monday to Friday

* 22 days annual leave plus bank holidays

* Travel across London & the Southeast for site visits

A genuine opportunity to work for an established market leader - helping drive a product pivot into the high-end market. If you're ready to bring your craftsmanship and technical skill to a business investing in its future at the top end of the trade, we'd love to hear from you
