Print Finishers Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve spent the last six years handling binding and finishing work that keeps print runs moving smoothly. In my current role, I’ve set up and trouble-shot folding lines and guillotines so a shift runs without hiccups, and I’ve learned to read the printer’s needs quickly. At the moment, I’m looking to bring that reliability to [Company Name] and contribute to a team that values steady, quality work on every job. I’m comfortable operating binding and finishing equipment, folding and sewing signatures, and trimming with paper guillotines. I’ve also helped with stencil prep and ink management, selecting colours that match proofs, and loading inks into presses without slowing the line. I’m keen to work with your team on both pre-press and post-press tasks, and to keep accuracy high while reducing waste. One project stands out from last year. We were behind on a large book run due to inconsistent folding tolerances, which risked missing the client deadline. I adjusted the folding and stacking workflow, calibrated the guillotine settings, and coordinated with the bindery to reorder a small lot of miscut sheets. The run finished on time and significantly improved the overall finish quality for that batch, which the client noted in their feedback. I’m available for a chat about how I can fit into [Company Name] and help keep your finishing line productive. If you’d like, I can come by for a quick visit to discuss how my hands-on approach would work with your setup. Kind regards, [Your Name]
