People who fit the pace of bottle work
Our days move between artwork checks, print prep, proof approval, packing and dispatch. The work suits people who can stay exact with measurements, colour notes and labels on curved glass, while keeping the bench orderly and the paperwork clear.
We work with short runs, which means each job can shift a little in shape, finish and packout. That calls for attention to detail, calm handwork and respect for the bottle before it reaches print.
Roles we hire for in Paarl
We build a team around the parts of the process that matter most. Current and future roles may sit in production, artwork, logistics or client support, depending on the load on the floor and the kinds of runs moving through.
- Print technicians for UV direct print, screen printing and ceramic enamel work
- Artwork coordinators for label setup, mock-up visuals and proof checks
- Production support for packing briefs, stock handling and line prep
- Logistics and delivery coordination for local and national dispatch
- Client services for brief intake and job tracking
Skills that make the day run cleaner
Experience in print helps, but we also value steady habits and practical judgement. A person who notices a shifted label panel, a weak white layer or an awkward bottle curve can save a lot of rework.
- Comfort with measuring, lining up and checking artwork against print areas
- Good file discipline and care with proofs before production starts
- Hands-on packing habits for glass, drinkware and mixed cartons
- Clear communication when a brief needs adjustment
- Respect for deadlines, stock counts and fragile goods
Tools and methods you may work around
Our work touches several decoration methods and each one asks for a different rhythm. Some jobs need labels with neat adhesion and accurate trim, while others need direct print, opaque white layers or enamel cures matched to the surface and use of the item.
Glass bottles, wine bottles, gin bottles, water bottles and drinking glasses all behave differently under print. A person joining the team learns how shape, finish and fill area affect the artwork before anything moves onto the line.
How to send your CV
Send your CV through the contact form with a brief note on the work you do best. If you have production, artwork or logistics experience, mention the materials, machines or packing systems you have worked with.
If your background is in another trade, say so clearly and include any transferable skills. We read for practical detail: what you have handled, what you are comfortable doing and where you work best in a busy print setting.
What the working week asks for
The work can move from one bottle shape to another in the same stretch of time. A good fit is someone who stays organised when the brief changes from wine bottles to drinkware, or from labels to direct print, without losing track of the proof.
- Care with fragile stock and finished packs
- Consistency across repeat runs and short runs
- Interest in print quality, colour and clean presentation
- Willingness to work with a mixed team in Paarl
