Vancouver, Canada Union Cooperative Initiative Full time

The Union Cooperative Initiative (UCI) is hiring a new Screen Printing Coordinator to support the Collective Print Shop and the growing union cooperative movement in British Columbia.

**BACKGROUND**

The UCI is a new non-profit multi-stakeholder cooperative established in 2021 to support the development of union cooperatives as part of a growing social and solidarity economy movement in British Columbia.

Our cooperative builds an economy that works for all by supporting the creation, incubation, and operation of unionized cooperatives that provide family sustaining and flexible jobs that are good for people and the planet, provide business opportunities for underserved communities, and are accountable to the communities we serve.

The UCI currently operates three main program areas: cooperative development services with value-aligned partner organizations, a worker training program that includes the delivery of the BCFED Organizing Institute, and cooperative Incubation and support services.

**JOB DESCRIPTION**

Under the direction of the Print Shop Coordinator, the UCI is seeking a Screen Printing Coordinator on a 7.5-hour / 1 day a week contract. Regular work days are Thursdays from 10 am to 530 pm to start. There is some flexibility on hours of work after the probationary period has been completed.

The Screen Printing Coordinator will support the print shop services and coordinate screen printing with the Print Shop Coordinator. Additional print shop support services may be required from time to time.

A passion for community development, dedication to social and economic justice, and interest in building a solidarity economy is required. Community-focused applicants with experience in the labour movement, non-profits, and arts are encouraged to apply.

This position is a 3-month contract until September 2023 made possible through core operational funding from the Alliance for Cooperative Development and Vancity Savings Credit Union and will be extended should grant funding be renewed.

**QUALIFICATIONS**
- 2 or more years experience in a screen printing role. Commercial screen printing experience is an asset.
- Strong working knowledge of screen printing techniques and processes from start to finish through formal training or work experience.
- Proficient in Adobe Creative Cloud and Google Workspace.
- Ability to adapt and troubleshoot.
- Excellent organizational skills with demonstrated attention to details.
- Excellent communication skills.
- Effective time management skills.
- Keen eye for detail.
- Initiative to work independently.
- Demonstrated ability to work well within a team.

Familiarity, understanding, and support of the principles of labour unions and cooperatives is essential for success in this role.

Familiarity and experience in a commercial print or equivalent enterprise is considered an asset.

Additional spoken and written language skills are an asset.

**JOB DUTIES**

Although this position is a part of a team, this work is primarily self-directed and requires strong time management, scheduling, and organizational skills.

Key responsibilities include:

- Answer questions and inquiries on screen printing services and pricing.
- Prepare and expose films and screens.
- Mix and colour match ink.
- Set up and operate one to four colour manual presses and conveyor dryer.
