Paint Apprentice colossal media - Brooklyn, NY 11249 Colossal Media is the worlds largest mural provider for global brands, ad agencies, and art galleries OVERVIEW We are looking for intelligent, energetic, focused, curious people that excel under extremely challenging circumstances to join us as paint apprentices for our NY based production team. If you can use a brush thats great, but if you've painted houses thats actually better. We can teach you to paint but we cannot teach you to be unstoppable. You will need to have achieved that before you found Colossal. If you've ever landscaped, framed a house, worked in a kitchen, done time in the military, been a roofer (or worked anywhere that is both physically and mentally difficult) then we'd love to meet you. We are a no bullshit solutions based biz, this approach has not only allowed us to set the standard for quality in our industry but also reset that standard on a daily basis. CORE RESPONSIBILITIES This position is both mentally and physically intensive and our standards at Colossal are uncommonly high. As a baseline, we work really long hours and work many days without breaks outside in the elements year around. Our expectation for those who complete our apprenticeship program is to go on to make great murals with us by leading or supporting large production teams while also teaching and training as we go.
