Finding a painter with Jobby
- Why searching takes time. A good painter works accurately, knows how to prepare a surface, and leaves the job site tidy for the client. Employers often look for someone who can handle both interior and exterior work, and during busy periods, tradespeople are quickly fully booked. On JobFunders, there are 150+ vacancies open for painters in Flanders (surveyed in September 2026): you are therefore competing with many other employers for the same people.
- Typical regimes. Daytime work on construction sites and for private clients, exterior painting primarily during the dry season, and new construction or renovation projects.
- This is how Jobby helps. Jobby searches talent pools of 260,000+ profiles 24/7 and also activates passive candidates who do not respond to vacancies. The first SMS invitations are sent within 2 minutes of activation; you will see your first candidates within 48 hours. If you set "experience with exterior painting on scaffolding" as a must-have, Jobby automatically filters out those who only did interior work.
- Minimum wage. The applicable minimum wage depends on your company's joint committee. For construction workers, the minimum wages by category are listed on our page about the minimum wage of a construction worker; you can find the other salary scales in the minimum wage database.
- Fair price. An annual subscription of €1,500 (Solo) to €6,000 (Scale) with a match guarantee, or €100 per approved candidate. A free ATS is included and there are no selection fees.
- And compared to interim? As a market average, a traditional interim agency charges a coefficient of approximately 2.10 on the gross salary for the duration of the interim period. If you still wish to start on an interim basis, Jobby finds and screens the candidate, and you work via payroll for an interim partner at a market-average coefficient of approximately 1.60. These are estimates: adjust them with your figures in the recruitment cost calculator. If you need painters who are immediately available at very short notice, an interim agency can be the right choice.
