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.

- 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

- Assist with shipping and receiving as needed
- Maintain a clean, organized, and safe production area
- Perform routine cleaning and basic maintenance of bindery equipment
