We're looking for a motivated Junior Print Operative to join our busy production team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build a career within the print industry.

While previous print experience would be an advantage, it isn't essential. We're looking for someone with the right attitude, a willingness to learn, and the ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced environment.

The Role

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Assisting with the operation of printing machinery.
  • Learning how to set up and run print equipment.
  • Preparing materials for production.
  • Carrying out general production and operative duties.
  • Ensuring work is completed to a high standard.
  • Keeping the work area clean, organised, and safe.

About You

We're looking for someone who is:

  • Enthusiastic and eager to learn.
  • Reliable with a strong work ethic.
  • Able to work at pace in a busy production environment.
  • Capable of working independently once trained, without the need for constant supervision.
  • Detail-oriented and proactive.
  • Ideally experienced in a manufacturing, warehouse, or print environment (although full training will be provided).
  • Ideally a driver with access to their own transport due to the location of the site.

What We Offer

  • £12.71 per hour.
  • Monday to Friday working hours (8:00am – 5:00pm).
  • Overtime opportunities during seasonal peaks, paid at time and a half.
  • Full training and ongoing support.
  • A friendly team environment with the opportunity to learn valuable skills and develop within the business.
