To be successful in this role, you will have a steady and methodical approach to work, a good eye for detail, and good numeracy skills. You’re familiar with the way a small, busy print studio operates, and you're happy to multi-task – quickly switching between jobs as workflow demands. When you spot problems, you are always willing to step in to keep things moving, even when that means trying something new.
You’re an experienced user of Adobe Creative Suite, in particular InDesign. You relish the idea of developing new skills and are not phased getting to grips with unfamiliar software tools. You like to see tasks through, from start to finish, and see yourself as a genuine team player.
