Summary

I have just arrived in Queenstown on a working holiday visa, seeking full time work. I have previous experience as a kitchen hand on Waiheke island, where I learnt different skills in order to carry out the job to a high standard and to assist the kitchen staff when preparing for service. I believe my experience at my previous role would be a benefit to your restaurant. I can also provide a reference if required.

Pre-press technician / Digital print operator

Hague Group
Manchester
06.2013 - 12.2023
  • During my 10 years service with Hague Group Manchester, I started out as a pre-press operative
  • Duties of this role involved a keen eye for detail, checking artwork files were set up correctly for printing
  • Communicating with other colleagues and customers to ensure efficient completion of jobs
  • Very often we had short deadlines to meet, this meant I developed the ability to work under pressure to achieve the customers expectations
  • I also developed further skills, by carrying out training in order to work digital printing presses such as a Konica minolta digital printer and a swiss Q impala flat bed printer
  • The training and working of these printing machines added digital print operator to my skillset, ensuring I could proof/plan up artwork for printing and then complete the process by producing the finished printed product.
