We're working with a successful, growing large format print company in Northants that's looking for a driven person who's ready to start a career in print production.
You don't need previous print experience. The company will provide training to help you learn how to set up and operate high-end Vutek superwide printers, including 5 metre and 3.2 metre machines. You'll be joining a well-invested, modern production environment, with the chance to build valuable skills and develop your career for the long term.
What you'll learn to do
- Prepare print jobs and materials for production
- Set up and operate large format and superwide printers
- Load and prepare different substrates and media
- Check print quality and learn how to make adjustments
- Monitor machines and resolve basic operational issues
- Work to production schedules and deadlines
- Carry out routine machine care and keep your work area tidy
- Follow quality, health and safety procedures
- Work with the wider production team to get jobs completed efficiently
We're looking for someone who
- Is motivated to learn and build a career in print
- Takes pride in doing careful, high-quality work
- Is reliable, proactive and positive
- Can stay organised and work to deadlines
- Communicates well and enjoys working as part of a team
- Is comfortable working in a hands-on production environment
Any experience in print, manufacturing or production would be useful, but it isn't essential. An interest in technology, machinery or how things are made would also be a plus.
This is a great opportunity to join a modern, well-invested company that will support your training and development, with long-term potential for someone keen to grow with the business.
