Lead Painter / Finisher — Job Call

MadeFirst West is looking for a Lead Painter / Finisher to help lead and strengthen our finish department in Los Angeles.

We’re looking for someone with a deep bag of finish experience across scenic, theming, automotive, display, and custom fabrication work — someone who can step in, take ownership of the paint department, lead a small team, work closely with production, and help bring more consistency, quality, and efficiency to how we finish projects.

This role is for someone who knows how to:

create great finishes across a wide range of materials and project types
lead other finishers with clarity and confidence
efficiently navigate digital tools like slack and g-suite for communication and project reviews
work closely with PMs, production, and builders
build systems, not just beautiful surfaces
stay flexible when fast-moving projects shift
keep quality high without slowing the whole shop down

Our work lives in the world of experiential fabrication, brand activations, scenic environments, themed builds, pop-ups, displays, and custom installations, so range matters.

We’re especially interested in candidates with experience in:

scenic paint and faux finishing
theming and immersive/environmental finishes
auto body-style prep and finishing
spraying/rolling/brushing clear coats, specialty coatings, and custom treatments
finish sampling, color matching, QC, and onsite touch-up/install support
leading small teams and managing finish workflow
willing to travel

If that sounds like you, we’d love to connect.

The Lead Painter / Finisher oversees and executes project finishes in support of MadeFirst’s fabrication, scenic, and activation work. This person will help lead the finish department day to day, managing finish workflow, quality, team communication, finish planning, and onsite follow-through as needed.

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone with broad finish experience who can work across a variety of project types and materials while helping the department become stronger, more self-sufficient, and more organized over time.

The ideal candidate is a strong finisher, a clear communicator, a practical leader, and someone who takes pride in both the craft and the process behind the work.

Comfortably use digital tools like Slack and G-Suite for communication and project review.
Review digital renderings, finish callouts, and samples to understand project intent
Communicate clearly across internal channels
Develop finish plans, treatments, and sequencing for assigned projects

Help identify job-specific materials, coatings, paints, and equipment needs
Coordinate with production on schedule, readiness, and handoff timing

Build Execution

Execute a wide range of finishes across scenic, themed, fabricated, and branded environments
Lead finish quality control throughout the life of a project
Communicate finish standards and treatment direction clearly to other finishers
Keep the department moving efficiently while maintaining quality
Troubleshoot finish issues as they arise and adjust approach as needed

Onsite / Install Support

Travel for installs, touch-ups, and field finish work as needed
Prepare finish kits and touch-up kits for installs and strikes
Help identify and resolve finish issues onsite quickly and professionally
Represent the department well in fast-paced, client-facing environments when needed

Department Standards / Upkeep

Help maintain a safe, clean, and functional finish area
Ensure proper PPE, spraying, and safety practices are followed
Help track and organize department tools, supplies, and materials
Contribute to ongoing improvements in process, workflow, and department setup

QualificationsRequired

Strong experience in painting / finishing within scenic, fabrication, theming, entertainment, retail, exhibit, or related build environments
Demonstrated leadership experience or clear readiness to lead a finish team
Wide range of finish knowledge, ideally including:
scenic paint
faux finishes
theming / immersive finishes
prep and surfacing
color matching
spraying / HVLP / airless
clear coats and specialty coatings
auto-style prep / bodywork / finishing
working across wood, metal, plastics, foam, hardcoat, and mixed-material builds
Strong eye for finish quality, consistency, and detail
Ability to interpret renderings, drawings, finish callouts, and design intent
Ability to work in a fast-paced fabrication environment with shifting priorities
Willingness to work overtime and travel for installs when needed
Ability to lift 50 lbs, use ladders, and work physically as required

Preferred

Scenic or themed entertainment background
Auto body or specialty coating experience
Experience building finish samples and finish documentation
Comfort working cross-functionally with PMs, production, and shop leads
Experience helping train or mentor junior finishers

What Success Looks Like

The finish department runs with more clarity, consistency, and independence
Finish expectations are understood earlier and communicated more clearly
Quality stays high across a wide range of projects
Finishers are better aligned, supported, and directed
The department becomes more efficient and less reactive
Onsite finish support is prepared, professional, and dependable

Tone / Fit

We’re looking for someone who is:

hands-on
highly capable
low ego
detail-oriented
adaptable
solutions-minded
strong with both craft and people

This role is a chance to help shape and elevate the finish department inside a fast-moving experiential fabrication shop doing a broad range of scenic, branded, and custom work.
