Tyrone, Digital Printer

What does your role involve?

I work in our digital printing stream on the Truepress and iGens. My main roles involve operating the machines, checking that everything we produce meets the standard of quality our customers expect and that all the printing machines are maintained – that they’re running well and producing what we expect from them.

What’s the best bit about your job?

I’m always getting feedback on my performance as an operator. It’s always good to hear ideas on how I can improve, but it’s also nice to hear I’m doing well. You always feel confident and empowered to do your best.

Why do you enjoy working for Bluetree Group?

Bluetree provide a fantastic and supportive environment to work in. The team I’m with are great to work alongside.

Joanna, Production Operative

What does your role involve?

I have a number of different responsibilities as part of my role. We send out samples to customers so they know what to expect, and I pack these and use the inserter machines. I also operate our Duplo 746 which is a digital print finishing machine. I’ve also recently started as a trainee stitcher.

What’s the best bit about your job?

I’m currently loving the stitching side of my job. I love getting to learn how to use new machines, and Bluetree give you the opportunity to train and grow as an employee.

Why do you enjoy working for Bluetree Group?

It’s great to be part of a company that’s seeing such huge growth. The forefront of the printing industry is an exciting place to be! I also love being able to try and train in different areas within the company. It means that my role is never repetitive and no day is ever the same.

Darren, Print Supervisor

What does your role involve?

As Print Supervisor, I make sure everything’s running okay, that machines are alright and are working, and things can go out on time. As far as my day-to-day roles, anything could happen! From fixing machines to tackling complex print jobs, it’s all about keeping quality and efficiency high.

What’s the best bit about your job?

The thing I enjoy the most is probably that you don’t know what jobs you’re going to get one day to the next. From analysing data, to seeing how we can improve the efficiencies of the presses. The variety I encounter every day is my favourite aspect of my job.

Why do you enjoy working for Bluetree Group?

I’ve been here from the beginning (over 20 years!), and seeing where we’ve come from and where we are now makes me so proud. The journey we’ve gone through has been incredible and we’ve grown so much.

Vinny, Inkjet & Dispatch Manager

What does your role involve?

My role is to monitor both our large format workflow and our dedicated business card cell. This involves ensuring that all print jobs from these areas are dispatched on time and that they meet our incredibly high quality standards.

What’s the best bit about your job?

I have over 32 years’ worth of experience in the print industry, and I still love coming into work every day – no matter the challenges. I love knowing that I’m using my experience to make Bluetree Group a world class organisation.

Why do you enjoy working for Bluetree Group?

We’re a really customer-focused business. It’s this high level of customer service that’s helped us grow so much and makes us different. No matter how technical a job may be, we always keep the customer at the forefront of our decisions.
