Why it is worth joining
Most finishing contractors in the Gulf hire crews per project. We do the opposite: around 200 applicators are direct employees on our own sponsorship, across the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
That changes what a job here is. You are trained to a manufacturer's standard and certified as an approved applicator for the systems you install. You work across a range most plasterers never touch — unfired clay, hydraulic lime, tadelakt, in-situ rammed earth, microcement, resin-bound aggregate. And you build a body of work you can point at: a museum in Madinah, a pavilion that won gold at Expo, a waterpark in Qatar.
The work is demanding and it is honest. A rammed earth wall is compacted once. A tadelakt surface is burnished in a window measured in minutes. There is no coat of paint at the end to hide a bad day.

What we look for
How to apply
Send a CV to the address below, with the country you are based in and the systems you have worked with. If you are an applicator, photographs of your own work say more than any CV — include them.
We read everything that arrives. If there is nothing open in your discipline we will say so rather than leave you waiting.
See the work first
Before you apply, look at what the team actually makes — twenty-one custom effects worked by hand, and the projects they were made for.
