Everett Ship Repair is the Pacific Northwest Premier Ship Repair Facility. Founded in 2019, Everett Ship Repair offers vast ship repair capabilities from its facility in Everett, Washington, including repair, maintenance, and conversion services for any type of commercial vessels, with focus on commercial workboats and passenger vessels. With the US Navy as our neighbor, it is no secret that we are in aggressive pursuit of earning their business as we grow our footprint, skills, and profile in this market. With impressive dry-docking capacity, and an opportunity to be part of an emerging team of industry veterans and highly skilled tradesmen, ESR strives to continuously improve our repair and construction methods into efficient and reliable processes. We seek tradesmen who share that view, value learning opportunities, and desire an opportunity to apply their skills in our progressive environment.

We are seeking a Paint Supervisor who will lead the efforts of the Journeymen and Apprentice Painters under his/her supervision and motivate them to accomplish the work safely, correctly, and efficiently. Paint and Coating is an art form, and we invite you to consider joining our team of artists who create the needed surface coatings and protections and provide finishing touches on our vessels. We transform vessels from a state of unfinished works in progress to awe-inspiring maritime masterpieces. Our trades advances in science and materials have created a need for us to acquire an accomplished paint craftsman who can develop the skills and careers of our internal paint department employees (from Apprentice through leads). Our work has required that we become safety and environmental specialists in a manner that protects and preserves our environment.
