We’re Expanding… Elevate Your Trade Career with Wave. Apply Now!
At Wave Building Services Ltd, we’re more than just a company – we’re a close-knit crew of skilled tradespeople who take pride in our craft, support one another, and genuinely enjoy what we do.
We’re on the lookout for someone who shares our values, enjoys building strong relationships with customers, and is always ready to assist the team with a range of maintenance tasks.
While our current focus is bathroom and kitchen refurbishments, we’re expanding into a wide range of work including joinery, tiling, plastering, painting, flooring, groundworks, and more. You’ll be out on the road across Exeter and South Devon, working on diverse and rewarding projects.
We’re looking for someone with confident, refined workmanship who can offer our customers unrivalled levels of professionalism. You don’t need to be a master of every trade, but we’d like you to bring solid skills in at least a few areas. Most importantly, you should take pride in delivering high-quality results. As a company, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional workmanship across Devon and the South West, and we’re looking for team members who share that commitment.
We’re a sociable bunch, so we’d love someone who also enjoys a bit of team spirit outside of work. If you enjoy variety and genuinely care about doing things the right way, we’d love to hear from you!

  • Proactive, customer-friendly, and approachable
  • Reliable and punctual
  • Consistently tidy, organised, and time-conscious in your work
  • Takes pride in solving problems efficiently and effectively
  • Communicates well and works independently when needed
  • Not afraid to roll up your sleeves and step up

If you’re ready to join a supportive, growing team that values your skills and your personality, apply today and let’s ride the Wave together!

What is required:

  • NVQ Level 2 equivalent or higher in a trade (carpentry, general, building etc.)
