This role requires strong technical knowledge of flexographic printing, colour matching, print registration, paper substrates, and press troubleshooting.

As the lead operator, you will take full responsibility for the press and crew during production, ensuring jobs are completed safely, efficiently, on time, and to specification. You will work closely with production, quality, maintenance, and management teams to support daily output, improve print consistency, and help train developing operators.

Support efficient make-ready, reduced waste, and strong daily production output
Communicate clearly with production, quality, maintenance, and management teams
Train, guide, and support other operators or helpers on the press
Follow all safety procedures and help maintain a clean, organized, and safety-first workspace

Qualifications

Inline / Unitized flexographic press experience strongly preferred
Experience with large-format flexographic printing considered a strong asset
Strong understanding of print registration, ink mixing, colour matching, and press setup
Experience printing on paper substrates, especially uncoated kraft paper, is preferred
Experience with water-based inks preferred
Able to identify and troubleshoot common print defects and press issues
Mechanically inclined and comfortable making minor press adjustments
Able to lead a press crew and take ownership of production quality and output
Dependable, detail-oriented, and able to work in a fast-paced manufacturing environment
Strong communication skills and a team-first attitude
Able to stand for long periods and lift up to 50 lbs as required

What We Offer

Competitive hourly pay based on experience
Opportunity for overtime
6% vacation pay
Statutory holidays
Paid sick days
Medical insurance
