About you
You are a Flexo Printer who takes pride in running a press properly.
You enjoy the technical side of print. Setting the machine correctly, keeping quality consistent and making sure the job runs smoothly from start to finish. You understand that good printing comes down to attention to detail and experience on the press.
You may have worked on Nilpeter presses before, though if you have strong flexographic printing experience on other machines that works too. The fundamentals are what matter.
If you are looking for a stable day shift flexo printing role in the Manchester area where you can run your machine without constant shift changes, this will suit you.
Your experience
You have solid experience operating flexographic printing presses within a labels, packaging or print manufacturing environment.
You understand flexographic print processes including colour control, registration, ink management and maintaining consistent quality throughout a run.
Experience on Nilpeter presses would be beneficial, though not essential if you have run other flexo presses.
You are confident setting up jobs, making adjustments during runs and maintaining output without sacrificing quality.
You take responsibility for your machine, keep your work area organised and understand the importance of meeting production deadlines.
What you will be doing with your experience in this role
You will set up and operate the flexographic printing press to produce high quality printed work.
You will monitor colour, registration and print quality throughout each run to ensure the finished product meets required standards.
You will carry out routine machine checks and basic maintenance to keep the press running efficiently.
You will work closely with the production team to make sure jobs are completed on time and to specification.
This is a single day shift role, working five days per week from 7.30am to 4pm with scheduled breaks during the day.
