Laminator Operative – Print Department

Laminator Operative – Print Department

We are currently recruiting for a Laminator Operative to join a busy Print Department within a leading book manufacturing company.

The successful candidate will be responsible for operating and monitoring laminating machinery used in the production of books. This is a fast-paced, hands-on role that would suit someone with previous experience working within a print, production or manufacturing environment, particularly someone who has operated machinery.

Key Responsibilities:

• Operating and monitoring laminating machinery
• Setting up and running machinery to meet production requirements
• Monitoring the production process and ensuring machines are running correctly
• Carrying out regular quality checks on finished products
• Identifying and reporting any issues with machinery or production
• Ensuring products meet the required quality standards
• Working to production targets and deadlines
• Maintaining a clean, tidy and safe working environment

About You:

• Previous experience within a print, production or manufacturing environment
• Experience operating production machinery is highly desirable
• Good attention to detail and a strong focus on quality
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, target-driven environment
• Must be comfortable standing for long periods of time
• Reliable, hardworking and willing to learn
• Previous laminator experience is desirable but not essential, as full training can be provided to the right candidate

Shift Pattern:

• 12-hour shifts
• Sunday – Tuesday
• Wednesday – Friday
• As we move into our busy season, some Saturdays will also be required depending on production requirements.

This is a 12-hour shift role, so candidates must be comfortable working long shifts and being on their feet for extended periods.

If you have experience working with machinery within a print or production environment and are looking for an opportunity to develop your skills, we would love to hear from you!
