Careers

At Printing House, careers are built around careful work, steady production and respect for deadlines. We support publishers, authors and businesses nationwide from our base in Industria, Johannesburg.

Careers

Work That Starts Before the Presses Run

Our team works across the full print process, from prepress checks and colour proofing through to offset printing, flexo printing and finishing. That means we hire people who are hands-on, methodical and comfortable working to spec, whether the job is a short run magazine, a hardcover title or a packed distribution order for a publisher in another province.

If you like practical work and take pride in getting details right, you will fit in well. We value people who can read instructions properly, ask the right questions and keep production moving even when the schedule is tight or the power supply is interrupted during load-shedding.

Roles We Often Hire For

We do not keep a fixed vacancy list, but we regularly look for people with experience in print production, bindery work, finishing, logistics and client support. Depending on workload, openings may suit experienced operators or those building a career in the trade.

  • Prepress and artwork checking
  • Press operation for offset or flexo work
  • Bindery and finishing support
  • Packing, dispatch and local delivery coordination
  • Client services and job tracking

We also consider skilled people who understand machine upkeep, stock handling and production reporting. If you have worked in a busy print enviroment before, mention it clearly in your CV.

Why People Join Our Team

Printing work needs discipline, timing and teamwork. At our Industria base, each job passes through several hands, so communication matters. We are looking for people who can work neatly, follow production notes and keep standards consistent from the first proof to the final carton leaving the floor.

Our work serves customers in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Sandton, Randburg, Roodepoort, Midrand and the East Rand, as well as publishers nationwide. That means deadlines matter and packing has to be right, especially when books and magazines are moving to different towns and provinces at the same time.

What We Value On The Floor

We work in a practical environment where reliability counts. You do not need fancy language, you need a good work ethic, a sense of urgency and the ability to keep standards steady even on a long shift or a busy month-end run.

  • Attention to detail on trim, fold and bind quality
  • Respect for equipment, paper and finished stock
  • Clear handover between shifts and departments
  • Willingness to learn new processes and improve output
  • Good timekeeping and a calm approach under pressure

In print, a small mistake can create waste, cost time and affect a customer deadline. People who understand that usually settle in quickly.
