Working at Deanes, you’ll be welcomed by an experienced team that is friendly and inviting. We work together to achieve continually high finishing standards. You will spend most of your time in Hampshire based retail client homes as well as occasional site work. As a Bespoke Fitted Furniture Manufacturer, every day is different, and we work towards completing work within an achievable timespan.
We want to help and support you to further your skills in carpentry and finishing and create an environment where you are proud of what you achieve.
We are a highly reputable fitted furniture retailer with highly talented installers who are experts in what they do. We’re looking to expand our team with people who are keen to commit and add value in a place that makes them happy and energised.
You
Deane is a highly-skilled bespoke fitted furniture company based in Fareham. We cover the whole of Hampshire as some of its surrounding areas.
We are very different from other companies in this industry. We won’t fill your day with an unachievable high volume of work and expect you to cut corners. Life at Deanes is still fast-paced, but it’s also enriching and stimulating. We take on the work that other companies cannot achieve with highly skilled installers.
Our goal is to become a highly renowned regional fitted furniture supplier, and we’re always on the lookout for people who can contribute to our culture and industry goals.
We’re looking to speak to genuinely engaged people in furniture installation and are eager to learn and hone their craft. Deanes is a place for people who want long-term fulfilment and who want to make a difference. Most of our staff have worked here for over 5 years and we still have the same 3 employees we did when we started over 22 years ago.
You’ll be happy to be challenged, and to take ownership of your work. Ideally, you’ll be able to hit the ground running with work, too. We’re all about adding extra value whenever and wherever we can.
