Sign D' Sign is looking for a skilled, hands-on Sign Fabricator / Painter / Installer to join our production team in Bluffton, SC.
This is a hybrid skilled-trades position for someone who enjoys building things, takes pride in a high-quality finished product, and doesn't want to spend every day doing exactly the same thing.
One day you may be assembling a custom sign in our shop, the next you're applying a professional painted finish, and another you're in the field helping install the finished project.
We're looking for someone with a solid mechanical and fabrication skill base who can work independently, solve problems and take pride in craftsmanship.
What You'll Do
Fabricate and assemble a variety of custom commercial signs
Prepare sign components and substrates for finishing
Prime, paint and finish routed and fabricated sign components
Perform high-quality spray finishing using HVLP paint equipment
Mix, prepare and apply coatings according to established procedures
Sand, mask, prep and finish materials to professional standards
Work with materials including HDU, aluminum, acrylic, PVC and other common sign substrates
Use hand tools, power tools and shop equipment safely and accurately
Read drawings, measurements and production specifications
Assist with and perform installation of signs at customer locations
Load, transport and properly secure signs, tools and materials
Work from ladders and lifts when required
Maintain clean and organized work areas, tools and equipment
Inspect your work and help ensure that completed signs meet Sign D' Sign's quality standards
Requirements
Who We're Looking For We're looking for someone who already has a strong hands-on skill base.
Qualified candidates should have: Previous experience in fabrication, sign making, painting, construction, cabinetry, automotive refinishing, millwork or a similar skilled trade
Experience using HVLP spray equipment
Strong understanding of surface preparation and professional paint finishing
Mechanical aptitude and confidence working with hand and power tools
Ability to accurately measure, lay out, assemble and install finished products
Strong attention to detail
Pride in workmanship and finished appearance
Ability to troubleshoot and solve problems in both shop and field environments
Ability to work effectively as part of a team
Ability to safely perform physical work, including lifting and working from ladders or lifts
Valid driver's license
Good driving record
Ability to successfully complete a background check
Sign industry experience is preferred, but we are also interested in experienced craftspeople from related industries who have the right skill set and are willing to learn the sign business.
Why Join Sign D' Sign?
We're not a production line making the same product every day.
Our team builds custom signage for businesses and organizations throughout the Lowcountry and Coastal Empire. You'll have the opportunity to work on a wide variety of projects and see the products you helped build installed throughout the community.
We value people who take ownership of their work, care about quality, help their teammates and want to continue developing their skills.

$24.00–$30.00 per hour, depending on experience and demonstrated skill level.
