This is a key role for someone with strong technical print knowledge, excellent leadership skills and the confidence to deliver positive change.

The successful candidate will play an important part in improving administrative processes and strengthening communication and organisation between the commercial and production teams.

  • Using technical print knowledge to understand production requirements and resolve queries
  • Reviewing existing procedures and identifying areas where organisation, efficiency and accuracy can be improved
  • Managing priorities and ensuring workloads and deadlines are effectively coordinated
  • Building strong working relationships across commercial, production and other departments
  • Supporting the wider management team in delivering an efficient and well-organised operation
  • Helping to embed changes and ensure improved processes are followed consistently

 

Ideally, you will have:

  • Strong technical knowledge of the print industry
  • Knowledge of litho and/or flexographic printing would be particularly beneficial
  • Previous experience within print administration, production administration, customer service, commercial or a similar print/manufacturing function
  • Previous leadership or team management experience
  • Experience of implementing change and improving administrative processes
  • The confidence to review established ways of working and introduce new ideas
  • The ability to bridge the gap between commercial requirements and production capabilities
  • Excellent organisational and communication skills
  • A practical and proactive approach to problem solving
  • Strong attention to detail
  • The ability to manage multiple priorities within a busy production environment

 

What’s on Offer

  • Salary circa £38,000–£46,000, negotiable depending on experience
  • Permanent position
  • Modern print manufacturing environment
  • A role with the opportunity to make a genuine impact on processes, organisation and communication across the business
  • The opportunity to combine print expertise with people leadership and continuous improvement
