Vacancy Detail

Flexographic Repro Specialist

Actions speak louder than words. Nothing truer when it comes to this role we are recruiting for. It’s a hybrid role, it’s hosting and demonstrating the capabilities of the flexographic printing presses that my client builds in house and closing for orders at said demonstrations. You're not a printer, this is all about knowing your pre press, your colour management and plate making. Using your knowledge and experience to inform new and prospect customers. 

It’d suit someone that is technically strong from the flexographic printing world. From any vertical from working in prepress, production, sales or the Studio. It's about your knowledge of the flexo prepress world. You’ll form part of the sales team so the ability to present and interact with potential customers is also key. 

You’ll be part of a very impressive set up. 80 + Headcount, £18m turnover and an ambitious Senior Management Team. They’re a business that has been in operation for 75 years! That’s a long time to perfect your art. The quality, the innovation, the service and support is all second to none and their global client base loves them for it. It’s important that you fall into the category of being passionate about your work, as this will shine through. 

Not only is this role about the presentation of the press but you’ll be responsible with working with the internal teams to ensure the flexo press is all set up ready to go. Prepress, plates, ink, substrates all your knowledge ready, primed and ready to blow the socks off the prospective customer. For this, you’ll be a solid team player and decent at communication both internally and externally. 

Earlier I mentioned you’d have to be technical and knowledgeable about flexo. Knowing your CMYK through to Fogra39, experience and understanding of plate making, the printing process and substantial knowledge of the Flexographic printing process are highly desirable. Almost essential, it’s what the new and prospecting clients would come to expect and it means that you’d be hitting the ground running and taking the new role like a duck to water. 

The age old saying of you have 2 ears and 1 mouth. You’ve got to be a great listener to be a huge success in this role. Why? Well this role is as much about innovation as it is demonstration. You’re at the forefront of this, you’ll be listening to the market during the presentations and demonstrations, you’ll retain the information and bring it back internally to help and develop and innovate further current and future products. 

If you’re experienced in the knowledge of Flexo, technical in your approach and knowledge of the print / packaging industry and love the client / customer interaction, then this is something we should be discussing further. 

A CV is not needed right now, so don’t worry if you don’t have one. All good things start with a conversation, which can be had on 0161 399 0804.
