New Job Sign Professional In Newfoundland And Labrador

Leaman Signs is seeking multiple full-time Sign Professionals to join our growing team. We’re a group of passionate sign makers who pride ourselves on producing top-quality work. We are looking for mature, career-oriented team members, who are self-motivated, detail-oriented, and reliable.

The sign industry is very creative with each day bringing a new set of challenges. One day you could be installing an exterior sign package for a national restaurant brand on Kenmount Road, the next day installing letters in a law office downtown, and the next applying solar window film in a private residence. If you are interested in a wide variety of work that puts your skills to the test this career could be for you!

The Leaman ABC’s:

Aptitude & Attitude – you are not required to know how to perform every aspect of the job on day one, but you are required to have a positive attitude towards learning and being a part of the team.

Better your Best – each day, whether in your personal or professional life, you are the type of person that wants to improve and always do better.

Clear Communication – you are an effective communicator both verbally and written, calm and collected even under pressure, and can work well with others to get the job done.
