Junior Goldsmith-Diamond Mounter

Job summary

We are looking for a full time Junior Goldsmith/Diamond mounter to work across both workshops, gaining
experience in all areas of our Goldsmithing work.

We believe that the Goldsmiths and Diamond Mounters of the future will be multi disciplined, whether that
be goldsmithing skills alongside proficiency in CAD, setting or other specialisms. Some understanding of
CAD or setting would therefore be beneficial, although not crucial, as training will be provided.

The role will be available from January 2027 onwards.

Responsibilities of role

Some of the responsibilities of the role will be:

  • Clean up and assembly of castings to an excellent standard
  • Develop hand making skills to a high level
  • Competently carry out repairs and alterations
  • Polishing, finishing and electroplating to a high standard
  • Interacting with customers
  • Working across both workshops to support repairs and alterations as well as bespoke and stock jewellery as well as restorations.
  • Developing CAD or setting skills alongside your primary role as a Goldsmith.

Requirements of candidate

You will have completed a period of training, whether that be a formal apprenticeship/similar level qualification, or have been working in a reputable fine jewellery workshop for at least 4 - 5 years.

You will be competent at cleaning up and assembling castings with multiple components. A good ability with resizes and alterations and a solid foundation of handmaking skills are preferable, but again training will be provided to nurture these areas. You will have a high standard of finishing and demonstrate consideration for this throughout the making process.

You will be enthusiastic, motivated and have a keen desire to develop your skills. You will have excellent attention to detail and a passion for craftsmanship. Communication and team work are critical – we are a small team and depend on each other being adaptable, versatile and willing to help out where needed.

Benefits

We have an outstanding reputation within the area for the quality of our jewellery and the level of service
we provide our customers.

We are passionate about training and development, with opportunities across the business to further your
knowledge and skills through in house training and external courses. We have a range of tools and
technology that our team work with to create our jewellery which will help to develop your skills and
understanding further. We travel internationally to industry shows and for buying trips and opportunities are
available to the team to attend these.

We operate a discretionary bonus scheme and generous company pension.

Salary 

Dependent on experience.
