Job description

MOO set out to shake up the world of print back in 2006. And we’ve come a long way since. Today we’re a 400 + strong team (we’re thinking of getting matching jackets) who create print and digital products for companies of all sizes – from Google and AirBnB to the guy who makes those amazing prints you found at a craft fair.

Our global HQ is in London, UK, while we also have premises in Dagenham. In the US, you’ll find us in Boston, MA Denver, CO, and East Providence, RI

We’re making new and exciting things – and we could really do with your help.

The role

Our press operators run either HP or Konica Minolta presses, which include, but is not limited to managing print quality, routine maintenance and following production processes and managing substrates with minimal supervision. You'll be apart of the larger Manufacturing team in our East Providence facility.

A little bit more about you:

We welcome all types of people. But to succeed in this role, there are three things we really need.

Physical fitness

No need to be a crossfit champ, but you will need to stand for the whole shift (except meal and rest periods of course), move and lift up to 55 pounds and be able to bend or twist at the waist and knees.

People skills

We’re a real team, so you’ll be a good communicator and keen to help out and assist others when needed.

Good work ethic

Without you, there is no MOO. So, to keep our customers thrilled, we need good time management skills, high levels of concentration and a willingness to work overtime – including during the weekend when customer demand requires it.

Mechanical Aptitude

Machines can be a bit quirky sometimes, and you will need to be able to trouble shoot issues and work with service technicians to do minor repairs to the press.

Responsibilities

• Operation of Konica Minolta presses and HP presses, which includes, but is not limited to managing print quality, routine maintenance, and following production processes and managing substrates with minimal supervision
• Process and produce MOO products as requested and/or directed
• Ability to utilize MOO business software systems for manufacturing
• Produce work in accordance with LEAN manufacturing principles
• Follow instructions of supervisors and assist other workers in performing facility functions
• Maintain work area to 5S standards
• Maintain and manage repairs as outlined according to Konica Minolta level certification and HP level certification
• Send files electronically to press organize work according to schedule

Nice to Haves

• HP or Konica Minolta press experience or sheet fed offset experience

What’s it like to work at MOO?

MOO’s the kind of workplace where you can really be yourself. Dye your hair purple. Hit the sofa with your laptop. Whatever helps you feel comfortable and happy at work. We want to help you grow in your career and set you up for success – while also recognizing the importance of a healthy work/life balance.

That’s why we offer 22 days’ PTO plus Federal holidays, a 401(k) match, MOO stock option program, paid parental leave and we’ll cover 100% of your health, dental and vision care premiums. We’ll also cover you with life insurance and long-term disability insurance, and we offer a wellness program too. Finally, we’ll treat you to breakfast and fresh fruit every day, lunch on Fridays and all the ice cream you can eat (just watch for the brain freeze).
