OPEN POSITION
Production/Bindery Technician
LAD Custom Publishing employs several production and bindery techs seasonally during our Summer (July/Aug) and Winter (Dec/Jan) Rush periods. These positions involve using various printing equipment such as color and black & white digital presses. In the bindery, we assemble, punch, drill, coil, shrink-wrap, pack and ship the books.
While this position is often seasonal, LAD prefers to employ techs who will develop and grow with the company and return for subsequent seasons, and sometimes even transition into year-round roles. This position requires significant attention to detail, as our quality standards are extremely high.
LAD is a family business, and enjoys an extremely positive work environment. We seek long-term matches for our company, and actively look for those who are friendly, personable, and relatable to interact with our customers and teammates. Pay rates are determined based on skill and experience, and are relative to rates paid in the local Gainesville/Lawrenceville markets, and based on the most current market research.
