    We are a fast-paced, creative work environment where teamwork, accountability, and quality matter. We work with a wide variety of local and regional businesses, helping our clients bring their brands to life through print, signage, marketing materials, and more.

    Our production team plays a major role in the customer experience. As our Bindery Operator, you will be responsible for taking printed work through the finishing process and making sure every job is completed accurately, efficiently, and to our quality standards.

    What You'll Do

    Your day-to-day responsibilities may include:

    Operate bindery and finishing equipment including cutters, folders, creasers, scoring and perforating equipment, drills, laminators, and binding equipment

    Cut, fold, score, perforate, collate, pad, drill, stitch, staple, laminate, and bind printed materials

    Perform coil/spiral binding and other finishing processes as required

    Read and follow job tickets to ensure specifications, quantities, and finishing requirements are correct

    Prioritize jobs based on production schedules and due dates

    Inspect finished work for accuracy and quality before it moves to the next stage

    Catch and communicate production or quality issues before a job is completed

    Count, package, label, and prepare completed jobs for customer pickup, delivery, or shipping

    Assist with shipping and receiving as needed

    Maintain a clean, organized, and safe production area

    Perform routine cleaning and basic maintenance of bindery equipment

    Monitor supplies and communicate when materials need to be reordered

    Work closely with our production, customer service, and sales teams to keep jobs moving and meet customer deadlines

    Assist with other production responsibilities as workload requires

    What We're Looking For

    We are looking for someone who is dependable, detail-oriented, productive, and comfortable working with their hands.

    The right person will:

    Have previous experience in print production, bindery, finishing, manufacturing, or a similar production environment

    Be comfortable operating production equipment and learning new machinery

    Have strong attention to detail and quality

    Be able to read measurements and work accurately with rulers and basic production specifications

    Understand the importance of deadlines and production schedules

    Be proactive and willing to take initiative without needing constant direction

    Be able to identify poor-quality or incorrect work and bring it to management's attention

    Communicate well with coworkers and work effectively as part of a team

    Be comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where priorities may change throughout the day

    Take pride in keeping their workspace and equipment clean and organized

    Be dependable and consistently show up ready to work
