Advantageous Experience
Experience with any of the following would be beneficial:

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Practical Skills Test
As part of the recruitment process, a practical pre-press test will be required. You will be presented with a packaging artwork file and asked to:
- Prepare the artwork fully for print.
- Identify and document the errors within a separate non-conforming artwork file.
This is a genuine hands-on packaging and label pre-press role, so we are looking for someone who can demonstrate their knowledge rather than simply list it on a CV.
If you have the experience, technical ability, and attention to detail required, we would be interested in hearing from you.
