  • Implementing changes to existing files based on specific client requests, including text updates, image swaps, and logo replacements.
  • Working with variable data printing (VDP) to personalize print materials with customer-specific information.
  • Creating print-ready templates that can be reused and automated for client self-service.
  • Conducting preflight checks to verify that all files are correctly formatted for printing and meet production standards.

  • Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously with a focus on efficiency and meeting deadlines.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to work quickly without sacrificing accuracy.
  • Experience with template creation for print automation is a plus.
  • Familiarity with print-specific terminology and production requirements.

Bonus Skills

  • Experience working with AI tools to enhance typesetting and production efficiency.
  • Background in creating digital print templates for online client self-service portals.
