Role Summary
We are recruiting experienced metal roofers and cladding installers for projects located mainly

seam roofing and wall cladding, with a smaller amount of flashing work to roof perimeters,
windows and doors.
Strong standing-seam panel-installation experience is the main requirement. Candidates with good
panel skills but less experience producing complicated bespoke flashing details are still encouraged to
apply. A strong Team of 10 workers is needed for this project. A roofing Crew are welcome to

• Install underlays, clips, fixings and associated components in accordance with drawings and
manufacturer requirements.
• Form and install flashings to roof perimeters, parapets, eaves, verges and ridges.
• Complete weatherproof details around windows, doors, roof penetrations and other openings.
• Read and work from architectural drawings, roof plans and site measurements, checking
substrates and supporting structures before installation and reporting any issues.
• Produce clean, straight seams and a high-quality architectural finish while protecting completed
metal surfaces from damage.
• Work safely from scaffolding, access platforms and roof-level fall-protection systems, while
keeping work areas tidy and coordinating effectively with supervisors, installers and site-
management teams.
Essential Requirements
• Proven practical experience installing standing-seam metal roofing or cladding.
• Experience working with aluminium, zinc or similar architectural sheet-metal systems.
• Ability to set out, measure, cut and install panels accurately.
• Good understanding of weathering, overlaps, clips, joints and water-shedding details.
• Ability to use hand-seaming, folding and sheet-metal installation tools safely.
• Comfortable and competent working at height.
• Good timekeeping, reliability and attention to detail.
• Willingness to travel between projects, mainly throughout the West of Ireland.
Advantageous Experience
• Two or more years’ experience in standing-seam roofing or cladding, including double-lock,
single-lock or snap-lock systems.
• Experience forming flashings around windows, doors, parapets and roof penetrations.
• Ability to operate folding, profiling or roll-forming equipment.
• Working at Heights and MEWP or cherry-picker certification, together with a full Category B
driving licence.
• Experience installing gutters, downpipes, copings or façade cladding.
What We Offer
• Competitive rates and consistent work on quality roofing and cladding projects.
