Vacancy Detail

Pre-press plate technician

Nothing goes without your say-so. That's how integral you are to the business, to the client and a recognition of how much you need to be 'on it'.  You'll be working with the Studio, the production and the senior management team. Everything before the physical printing has happened and now it's for you to make the 'idea' 'the creative' a reality by getting the printing plates created and sorted.

Ideally, you'll have experience of being a plate maker or certainly been in pre-press as this is the kind of role where you'll be thrown straight into the deep end so you've got to be up to speed pretty quickly. 

The ability to work under pressure, to tight time scales and quick turn arounds. Working on some of the biggest brands in the world, you'll be expected to be razor sharp on quality and communication with all other departments in the process. 

This is shift work. Weekly rotation of early and backs. The ability to do this is paramount and integral to the operation, so please make sure this is ok for you when applying. 

You're going to be joining a business that is a global operation. Multiple Sites, Multiple countries and multiple leading brands that are long-established customers. Glasgow is a centre for excellence. Leading the way in benefits, incentives, investments and growth. Everything that is implemented across the business is done so right here in Glasgow. First. 

Longevity and progression are key here too. People stay once they are in. The average tenure within the business site in Glasgow is high, 18 years! Part of this is that they hire hugely on attitude and behaviours but with one eye on your development. Personal development is huge and if you fancy a new challenge, they'd much rather you stay and help you reach your aspirations. 

If you've got solid experience across flexo, prepress, plate making or wider packaging then this could be something you might want to look at. I'm sure there are loads of questions you have which can be answered by expressing your interest or getting in touch.
