We want you

Your workplaceOur own print shopFrom file to finished product, on Begijnenstraat.

The job

From Friday to Monday, you’re part of our production team. On Saturday and Sunday the shop is closed to customers, so you can give the work your full attention.

What you’ll do

  • Print on our digital press, printers and plotters, and do print & cut on our Mimaki printer and Summa cutting plotter
  • Get files ready for print: check them and lay them out on the sheet
  • Finish jobs: cutting, creasing, laminating, hole-punching, ring binding, folding and stapling
  • Work with more than 30 paper types, from Kraft to transparent
  • Pack orders neatly and get them ready for pickup or shipping
  • Lend a hand wherever it’s needed, including when things get busy. And they will, because a lot of print work has to be ready “preferably today”.

Who you are

  • You’re passionate about the craft and want every job to leave the shop looking perfect
  • You like working with your hands, and a full day doesn’t scare you
  • You have an eye for detail: a cut that’s 1 mm off, you spot right away
  • You’re creative and eager to learn something new every day
  • English is all you need: it can be our working language. Dutch or French is a bonus.
  • Experience in a print shop or with Illustrator is a plus, but not a must: we’ll teach you everything
  • You’re available every Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday

What we offer

  • A part-time job of four days, Friday to Monday, in a small team in the centre of Antwerp
  • Creative work where no two days are the same
  • Professional machines and special materials to work with
  • You learn the trade from the inside, from file to finished product

About us

For more than 25 years, The Printing Shop has been Antwerp’s printing shop. In our own digital print shop in the heart of the city, we print almost everything and finish it ourselves: from flyers, posters, business cards and brochures to stickers in any shape, menus, hang tags, forex signs and large format up to 160 cm wide.

We work for businesses, restaurants and bars, brands and event organisers. Plenty of students also have their course notes and theses printed with us. No two jobs are the same: today it’s cloakroom tickets with a tear-off stub, tomorrow a scientific poster in A0 or packaging sleeves that have to survive the fridge.
