Production Assistant
The Ivy Press is looking for a hard working assistant to support its busy Production Department.
This is an excellent opportunity for an energetic self starter looking to break into publishing and we are offering a starting salary of £14,000.
The Production Department is responsible for producing all printed matter for the group from stationery and sales material to finished printed and bound books delivered worldwide. We work with suppliers in the UK, Europe, India, China, Thailand and Singapore.
We make books and novelty packs which require extremely high standards of reproduction, print and finishing and we negotiate and place print to the value of about £3,000,000 every year. This a rare chance to learn all about books and publishing from a company who have a reputation for excellence.
You will need an excellent organisational ability, a good eye for detail, a flexible and lively approach to problem solving, good common sense with a willingness to 'muck' in and an ability to cope under pressure while still retaining your sense of humour. Knowledge of InDesign, Photoshop, Excel and Word would be an advantage.
If you believe you have what we're looking for, please apply in writing to:
