Come Work at Väriset in 2027

Painter's work at Väriset

A painter's work is seasonal. That is why here at Väriset we talk about, for example, the 2027 season rather than just the summer. We generally paint houses and roofs from April until early autumn, and it is for these projects that we are looking for painters for both walls and roofs!

When you become a painter at Väriset, your work is very independent, but it is mainly done together with a partner in two-person teams. You will always have the support of Väriset's supervisors and colleagues. You do not need to be a ready-made painting professional; instead, every one of our painters receives comprehensive training for the job.

The employees who apply to us usually have a great attitude, problem-solving skills, and the ability to plan their own work. We require all painters to be of legal age and to have fluent Finnish language skills.

We ask those becoming painters to commit to the work for at least three months. This ensures the painter has enough time to receive proper induction, while we ensure a sufficient number of employees for the entire season.

Painter, know these things:

Driver's license and car

A painter's work is mobile, and the painting sites change frequently. Therefore, a driver's license is essential!

Many of our painters acquire their own "work car" for the season, which is equipped with a tow bar to travel easily from site to site. It is also best to transport painting equipment in a trailer. Therefore, it is good to consider before the start of the season whether you or your partner has a car suitable for the job with a tow bar, and preferably a Category B driver's license for both.

Väriset always pays compensation for work-related travel.

As a subcontractor or in an employment relationship?

The majority of Väriset's painters operate as subcontractors at Väriset's sites through their own sole proprietorship or company. However, especially beginning painters prefer to start their careers in an employment relationship.

Experienced painters can work as subcontractors

Many self-directed and skilled painters work as subcontractors. In this case, they have overall responsibility for the contract, and invoicing is handled accordingly. Väriset offers subcontractors the industry's best processes and platforms, allowing them to focus solely on painting.

Employment is easy and secure

All Väriset painters receive training for their work, whether they have previous painting experience or not. An employee committed to an employment relationship receives a safe working environment, great benefits, and a worry-free way to earn a salary.
