Body and Paint Technician.

2302 Rd 125, St. Marys, ON N4X 1C9, Canada.

The Opportunity

At All‑Equip, you’ll handle damage repairs, and finish the bodywork on custom builds, and put the final coat on purpose‑built trailers coming off our Platinum Trailers manufacturing line. It’s varied, skilled work in a shop that respects the trade and builds things worth being proud of.

Work Arrangement: Full‑Time, Fully On‑site, Monday to Friday, 7AM-4PM. This is hands‑on assembly work in a busy manufacturing environment.

Compensation

This is a hourly position paying $28-$36/hr depending on experience, plus a comprehensive benefits package including Extended Health Care, Dental, and RRSP contributions. Overtime is available for those who want it.

About Us

All-Equip is a family-owned manufacturer. sector, we’ll find a way to build it. Founded in 2011, we’ve grown into a recognized leader in both trailer manufacturing and heavy equipment repair and service, and it’s that repair experience that gives us a real edge. We’ve seen what fails in the field, and what holds up under pressure. That knowledge is baked into everything we do.

Learn more about what we do: allequiprepair.ca and platinumtrailersmfg.com.

The Role

As our Body & Paint Technician, your work spans the full range of what a shop can throw at you. You’ll handle collision and damage repairs, refurbishments, and the bodywork on custom builds. You’ll also be part of the finishing process on new trailer builds coming off our Platinum Trailers manufacturing line.

In a typical week, you’ll move between fleet repairs, surface prep, and finish coats on new builds. The workload shifts with the shop’s production schedule — so no two weeks looks the same, and that’s by design.

Key Responsibilities

  • Perform collision and damage repairs on heavy trucks, trailers, and fleet equipment — panel work, dent repair, and structural straightening.
  • Conduct surface preparation including sanding, masking, priming, and filling to achieve a consistent, paint‑ready finish.
  • Apply primer and finish coats across a range of work — collision repairs, full refurbishments, custom builds, and new trailer production finishing.
  • Match colours accurately and maintain a consistent, high‑quality finish standard across every job.
  • Work across steel, aluminum, and fiberglass, adapting technique and product selection to each material.
  • Communicate clearly with the shop team on job status, materials needs, and work sequencing.
  • Maintain a clean, organized workspace with proper ventilation and PPE — safety standards are non‑negotiable.

What We Offer

  • Full‑time, Monday to Friday 7AM-4PM.
  • Extended Health Care and Dental benefits.
  • Bi‑weekly direct deposit.
  • Overtime available for those who want it.

Qualifications & Experience

  • 310B (Automotive Painter) and/or 409A (Auto Body and Collision Damage Repairer) license — or currently enrolled as a 3rd‑year apprentice (minimum) — preferred.
  • Hands‑on experience with surface preparation, colour matching, and spray equipment.
  • Comfortable working on heavy trucks, trailers, and large equipment.
  • Strong attention to detail and a personal standard for clean, consistent work.
  • Able to communicate clearly with team members and keep accurate job records.
  • Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation.
  • Physically capable of working in a demanding shop environment
  • Dedicated, reliable, and able to work independently or as part of a team.
  • Organized and able to manage multiple jobs in varying stages of completion.
  • Commitment to safe work practices and proper PPE use.

Education & Certifications

310B (Automotive Painter) or 409A (Auto Body and Collision Damage Repairer) license preferred, or minimum 3rd‑year apprenticeship standing in either trade. Dual‑ticket candidates are a strong asset.
