Colour Technician

ABOUT THE ROLE

Sherwin-Williams is a global leader in paints and coatings. We are looking for a Colour Formulator to join our team in Hamilton, working in colour creation and formulation across our specialist coatings range.

Based at our Hamilton distribution and warehouse site, you will be responsible for producing accurate, high-quality colour formulations for our customers.

What matters most to us is:

·        Excellent attention to detail and a methodical approach

·        Problem-solving ability and a willingness to think creatively

·        Confidence working with databases and technical information

·        Flexibility and adaptability to handle a varying workload

·        A strong work ethic and reliability

·        Willingness to undergo a pre-employment security check and drug test
