What are the responsibilities and job description for the Bindery and Finishing Manager - Commercial Printing position at AC PRINTING LLC?
$75,000–$85,000 a year, based on experience
Full-time, salaried · Monday–Friday days, some Saturdays · Euless, TX
Run the finishing side of a busy commercial print plant. You'll lead a bindery team of 10 across our cutters, folders, stitchers, perfect binder and die-cutters, and get every job out the door on time and right.
Why AC Printing?
- Established business: printing in Euless since 1989, with offset, digital and large-format presses, a full bindery and mailing under one roof, and steady work all year for cities, universities and companies across Texas.
- Culture: family-owned, with an experienced crew (many have 15 to 20 years in the trade), in a plant small enough that you work directly with the plant manager and leadership.
- Room to grow your career: we're adding a second shift, and you'll help launch it. As the plant grows, so does this job.
What you'll do
- Set the daily and weekly run order with the plant manager, by due date and changeover
- Lead, train and schedule the team; cover absences; help us hire
- Catch problems before they turn into re-runs, and sign off finished work
- Record every job's time and output, so we know what finishing really costs
- Decide what we finish in-house and what goes out, and bring work back in
- Help plan and launch a second bindery shift
- Run a machine yourself when the team is short
What you need
- 5 years in a commercial bindery, finishing or mailing house, including time leading a team or a shift
- Hands-on set-up of cutters and folders; working knowledge of stitching, binding and die-cutting
- You plan ahead, and you speak up early when a job is going to miss
- Comfortable on a computer for schedules and job tickets; a print management system (EPMS or similar) is a plus
- Able to be on your feet on the plant floor for a full shift, with or without reasonable accommodation
Schedule
Monday–Friday, 7:00 am–5:00 pm or 6:30 am–4:30 pm. Saturday is our catch-up day, and you're in when the team is in. Expect 12-hour days during peak production.
