Job description

At Broadridge, we've built a culture where the highest goal is to empower others to accomplish more. If you’re passionate about developing your career, while helping others along the way, come join the Broadridge team.

Broadridge is growing! We are currently recruiting a High-Speed Insert Operator to join our dynamic Production Operations team in South Windsor.

Work Mode: This is an on-site role that will be assigned to a Broadridge location where you will work 100% of the time.

High-Speed Insert Operators, acting in a single operator capacity, set up, operate, and monitor automatic or semi-automatic high-speed inserting equipment used in the production and assembly of client output (e.g., cutting, bursting, binding, folding, inserting, labeling, stitching, and trimming). They interpret production orders to ascertain the proper job requirements prior to execution of the client-printed output. They assemble printed materials into a final product and distribute the final product to the end destination. High-Speed Insert Operators evaluate the quality of the output (e.g., color matching) to ensure quality standards and internal/external requirements are being met. Although they support projects of any scope or size, they primarily operate minimal insert load and minimal to moderate sheet to statement ratios (e.g., 3-4 average sheets per statement). This varies by client and may be reevaluated or altered as client complexity could change in any given month. They comply with operating requirements/guidelines and ensure effective utilization of the equipment and perform preventative maintenance and authorized repairs. They resolve all systems issues proactively, seeking guidance from more experienced operators as needed. High-Speed Insert Operators may also prepare mail for acceptance by the Post Office. Level of knowledge, skills, experience, and performance distinguish an Operator from a Sr. Operator.
