Primary Roofer Responsibilities & Duties
- Roof Installation & Repair: Accurately measure, cut, and install roofing materials including tiles, slates, felt, membranes, and insulation on both new build and refurbishment projects across Newport.
- Structural Waterproofing: Apply lead work, flashings, and sealants to ensure roofs are completely watertight and meet UK building regulations, a critical skill for any competent roofer.
- Site Safety & Preparation: Rigorously adhere to all health and safety protocols, including working at height regulations, setting up safe access, and ensuring a tidy worksite.
- Material Handling & Machinery: Safely operate roof ladders, scaffolding, and powered access equipment. Efficiently handle and transport materials to roof level, minimising waste.
- Team Collaboration & Reporting: Work effectively as part of a site team, communicating with supervisors and other trades. Report progress and any issues promptly to the site foreman.
- Maintenance & Weatherproofing: Conduct roof surveys for damage, carry out scheduled maintenance, and install ventilation and insulation systems to improve building energy efficiency.
Essential Skills & Requirements
- Proven Experience: Minimum of 2 years hands-on experience as a Roofer, Roofer’s Mate, or related Construction Worker role. A portfolio or references are highly valued.
- Valid CSCS Card: A current Construction Skills Certification Scheme card is mandatory for access to most Newport construction sites.
- Tools & Transportation: Must have your own basic hand tools (trowels, hammers, knives) and reliable transportation to get to various sites across the NP10 postcode and wider Gwent area.
- Physical Fitness & Safety Mindset: The role is physically demanding, involving lifting, bending, and working at height. A unwavering commitment to safe working practices is non-negotiable.

Frequently Asked Questions (Roofer Jobs Newport)
Our Newport clients require experience with both traditional pitched roofing (tiles, slates) and modern flat roofing systems (felt, EPDM, GRP). Experience with lead work, flashings, and insulation is a major advantage. If your background is more general construction labouring, we may have suitable mate or assistant roles to help you upskill.
For candidates with all documentation ready (CSCS card, right-to-work, references), we regularly facilitate starts within 24-48 hours. The speed depends on client urgency and your availability. We specialise in immediate start job vacancies across all sectors, and construction is one of our fastest-moving areas.
We offer both. Many roles begin as temporary contracts to cover specific projects or peak demand, but a significant portion convert to permanent positions for reliable, skilled workers. We also list direct permanent vacancies from our client partners. Explore all options on our All Jobs board.
Absolutely. StaffDirect is a multi-sector agency. While this page is for Roofer roles, we have a huge demand for Factory Worker and warehouse operatives across South Wales. Once registered, your consultant can discuss all opportunities that match your skills, whether in construction, manufacturing, or logistics. Check out our warehouse recruitment pages for more info.
