Printworker Edinburgh, Scotland
Job description
JOB DESCRIPTION
As a member of our production and sales team, a Reprographics Assistant must be a flexible and engaged worker, balancing the demands of a busy sales counter with producing printed material for orders placed via email.
Operating a wide range of printing machinery and finishing equipment will require a logical, problem-solving outlook in order to turn instructions and raw files into a professionally finished product.
Communication is a key component of the success of the Edinburgh Copyshop – which means answering phones, replying to emails and serving customers face-to-face will all play a part in day to day work in addition to production.
Working efficiently and methodically both solo and as part of a fantastic and friendly team is an essential requirement in a busy environment where every day is both different and a learning experience.
WHO WE ARE
The Edinburgh Copyshop is a digital-print copy shop working with tight turnarounds to remain competitive in a market evolving towards online sales. We differentiate ourselves from internet based businesses through quick turnarounds, friendly service, and a knowledgeable and approachable team who work with every customer to ensure the process is made easy, jargon-free and enjoyable. Our customer base includes students, local business owners, restaurateurs, architects and artists, but with no minimum order volume we’re happy to help print even a single sheet.
EXPECTATIONS
Working Hours: 38-40 hours per week working 5 days out of 6 (Monday – Saturday) Note: Saturdays will be scheduled for this position though holiday cover will be available. Overtime is very frequently available. Flexible working hours may be available for the right candidate.
Pay will be reviewed after three full months employment.
Remote working is not possible for this position.
