An Introduction
We… Are the South West’s leading print & signage company, with 130+ 5-star reviews on Facebook and Google.
You… Know that results like that don’t happen by accident — they come from consistency, teamwork, and pride in your work.
You understand that a great workplace is built by its people, which is why your skills, your willingness to learn, and your ability to contribute positively to our culture will matter just as much as your technical expertise.
The Role
Supported by training from highly experienced print-industry people, you will be responsible for all aspects of artwork-related pre-press, including but not limited to:
- Gathering and understanding the customer’s design brief.
- Designing & typesetting everything from the simple & functional to the artistic and eye-catching. (Please note: this is NOT a role for someone who only wants to showcase their artistic flair.)
- Communicating issues and/or correcting customer-supplied artwork to ensure it is 100% commercial print ready.
- Preparing and sending artwork proofs and following up to ensure deadlines are met.
- Setting print impositions to maximise print efficiency along with technical accuracy.
- Actively assisting with customer service — answering phones, assisting with inquiries, and gathering information for others in the team. We do not have a “that’s not my job” mindset.
What You’ll Get From Us
- Security & stability in a locally owned & operated business with 18 years under its belt.
- Variety & challenge in your workday, using your current skills and building new ones.
- Great people to work with — teammates, customers, and suppliers who make the day enjoyable.
- Highly efficient systems & processes that keep the firefighting to an absolute minimum.
- Real input into how we improve — your ideas will be heard and genuinely considered.
- No weekend or public holiday work — your Monday to Friday will be busy enough!
- Teammates who pull their weight, get along, and help each other out.
- Open & constructive communication — you won’t be treated like a mushroom!
- Competitive above-award income, matched to your skills, experience, and the value you bring.
If you make it to the final stages, you'll receive a detailed and specific Pre-employment Information Package so that you are fully aware of your role, rights, and our expectations — before you officially sign on.
