• Manage spot colours, CMYK specifications and colour matching.
• Make artwork adjustments following print and production trials.

• Exceptional attention to detail, with the ability to identify artwork errors and inconsistencies.
• Ability to understand and follow technical specifications, printing requirements and established production processes.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to work independently as well as collaboratively within a team.
• A clear understanding of the difference between designing for on-screen presentation and preparing artwork for actual printing and production.
• Experience with specialised printing techniques such as pad, screen, gravure or flexographic printing will be highly regarded.
