About me

My name is Michael Blades and I am currently looking for a position as a Mac Operator/Artworker preferably in the print sector. I have been working for a family direct mail firm for year now, but would like to get back into the print industry again. I am an extremely well organised individual and an excellent time keeper and enjoy working to well defined procedures, especially quality checking and colour accuracy. I am a strong team player and have demonstrated this throughout my career. I work well on my own initiative but thrive working in a team environment. I am able to problem solve in a professional manner keeping downtime to a minimum whenever possible and consider myself to be very technically minded and very quick to learn new skills preferring a 'hands on' approach. My skills have been developed working with Apple Macs, PC's, Xerox digital printers and a range of print finishing machinery.
