Paving Team Labourer

Every wall and slab on this shopping centre renovation in Hammarsdale needs labourers, and the crew needs one more. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

The site is in Hammarsdale; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.
