Picture Framer

Hi there,

We are currently seeking a full-time framer to join our team in Twickenham.

We’re a busy independent framing shop in Twickenham, making bespoke frames for a loyal base of private and trade customers. We’re looking for an experienced picture framer to join our small team four days a week.

The role

This is a complete framing role, from the first conversation at the counter to the finished frame going out of the door. You’ll help customers choose mouldings and mounts, price and write up orders, then make the work yourself to a high standard.

Day to day you’ll be:

Serving customers in the shop, advising on moulding, mount and glazing choices and taking orders accurately

Cutting and joining frames using a Morso chopper and underpinner

Cutting mounts on a manual mount cutter, including multi-aperture work

Cutting glass and acrylic

Hinging and mounting artwork to conservation standards

Stretching canvases

Making picture and mirror frames

Checking quality, then finishing and packing work carefully for collection

Keeping the workshop tidy and helping with any other tasks as needed

What we’re looking for

At least 4 years’ hands-on experience as a picture framer (essential)

Experience of dealing with customers in a retail setting (preferable but not essential)

Confident with the Morso chopper, manual mount cutter and glass cutting

Careful, methodical and accurate, with a sharp eye for detail

Good with numbers: measuring, frame calculations and pricing

Friendly and helpful with customers, and happy working as part of a small team

Able to use your initiative and sort out problems as they come up

Hours

5 days a week

Salary dependent on experience.

Many Thanks
