Job Description

Rise before the sun and join a creative woodshop where you make more than furniture — you build atmospheres for lifelong learning. As a Wood Prep Finisher, you’ll sand, trim, glue, attach, and shape components destined for public libraries and educational spaces. Your craftsmanship will be visible in every corner of reading rooms for years to come. We’re small, niche, and wood obsessed. If you breathe sawdust and love precision, this is made for you.

This company produces library, education, and commercial furniture in Grand Rapids, sourcing wood locally and blending handcraft with modern processes.

You’ll trim and sand joints to prep pieces for finishing, attach parts using glue, dowels, screws, or clamps, measure for conformance, and run or set up shop machines and hand tools like sanders, routers, and edge banders. At times you’ll flex across departments to meet demand and follow shop orders or templates.

We Offer This Position :

  • $16.00 to $18.00 per hour (depending on experience)
  • 5 : 30 AM to 4 : 00 PM, Monday through Thursday or Monday through Friday 2 : 30 PM to 11 : 00 PM
  • Weekly pay
  • A $100 bonus for every friend you refer to us, plus an additional $25 bonus for your referral to WSI
  • Opportunity for permanent hire based on performance

Requirements for this position include :

  • Proven experience sanding, trimming, laminating, and operating woodworking tools safely
  • Ability to read templates, shop drawings, and follow instructions precisely
  • Must be able to speak, write, and read basic English
  • Comfortable working on your feet all day; bending, squatting, kneeling, pushing, pulling, twisting
  • Capable of lifting regularly 10–50 lbs, and occasionally 100+ lbs
  • Self motivated, detail oriented, and eager to learn new skills
  • Show us your craftsmanship and join our handful of makers building something lasting. Click to apply now — we can’t wait to see how you’ll shape what comes next.

    By submitting your application for this position, you are agreeing to receive communication from WSI, which may include calls, texts, and emails. You can unsubscribe from email or SMS messages by replying ‘stop’ at any time.
