About Us
Founded on a love for fine craftsmanship and a commitment to quality, our cabinet making company has been serving residential, commercial, and bespoke clientele for over four decades. Our reputation is built on attention to detail, outstanding customer service, and an unwavering dedication to excellence—from initial concept to final installation.
Our projects range from commercial fit-outs, architectural joinery to custom kitchens and bathrooms. We pride ourselves on blending traditional woodworking techniques with state-of-the-art technology, delivering unique solutions tailored to our clients' needs.
To support our continued growth, we are seeking a talented Shop Drawer/Drafts person to join our collaborative and passionate team.
Position Overview
As a Shop Drawer/Drafts person, you will play a pivotal role in the heart of our design and manufacturing process. Your primary responsibility will be to produce accurate, detailed shop drawings and technical drafts for our cabinetry and joinery projects. These drawings will be used by our workshop and installation teams to bring each project to life.
You will work closely with clients, project managers, and skilled tradespeople to ensure that every detail is captured and every design is both beautiful and build able. This is a position that requires creativity, technical precision, and excellent communication skills.
Key Responsibilities
· Prepare comprehensive shop drawings and technical drafts for cabinet making and joinery projects using CAD software (e.g., PaletteCAD, AutoCAD, Microvellum, or similar).
· Interpret architectural plans, specifications, and client sketches, translating them into detailed, production-ready drawings.
· Collaborate with project managers, designers, and workshop staff to ensure feasibility, accuracy, and efficiency of designs.
· Participate in project meetings and site visits to gather dimensions, clarify requirements, and resolve design challenges.
· Maintain and update drawing files, records, and documentation for each project.
· Provide technical support and advice to team members throughout the project life cycle.
· Ensure all drawings comply with relevant codes, regulations, and company standards.
· Identify potential issues and propose practical, creative solutions to enhance design, functionality, and build ability.
· Assist with revisions and updates to shop drawings as projects evolve.
· Help foster a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement in the drafting department.
