Job description

MOO is all about making great design available to everyone. We do that by producing premium print and branded merchandise. But it’s as much about how we do it, leading with design, technology and sustainability.

Founded in 2004, we’ve come this far by being obsessed with the happiness of our customers.  Along the way, we’ve built an award-winning and much-loved brand, with exceptional customer satisfaction and Trustpilot ratings. Those customers are typically small and medium-sized businesses based in North America, the UK, and Europe – businesses that, like us, value design and see the brand-building power of putting something real in people’s hands.  

We’ve received the highest business award in Britain, ‘The Queen’s Award for Enterprise’. Part of Tech Nation’s ‘Future Fifty’, we’ve been profiled in the Financial Times, and ranked in the Guardian’s top 10 UK start-ups.

Today we are over 350 people, headquartered in the UK but with many of our people based in the USA and South Africa.


The manufacturing team at MOO is responsible for delivering our customer promise. We make sure product is top notch and delivered speedy to the customer . We work together and keep things human by delivering our productivity targets individually and as a team.
 
Assembly operators hand package and dispatch our premium products while assuring the customer is delighted with their package. You are the "final touch." You’ll handle intricate assembly, kitting, and hand-finishing of printed materials, ensuring that the final product is flawless before it heads to the customer.
Responsibilities
  • Assemble final products
  • Dispatch product for shipping
  • Use our binning system to collect all items for an order
  • Operate light equipment
About You
  • The "Quality" Lens: An eye for detail—you notice if a color is off or a margin is crooked
  • Mechanical Aptitude: Comfort working with tools and a desire to learn how machines tick
  • Reliability: You take pride in showing up for your team and hitting production goals
  • Adaptability: The print world moves fast; you enjoy a day where the tasks might change based on the job ticket
  • Must haves: ability to lift 50+ lbs, ability to stand for an 8 hour shift (aside from breaks, of course!)
Nice to Haves
  • Experience in a manufacturing environment or print facility
What’s it like to work at MOO? 
MOO’s the kind of workplace where you can really be yourself. Dye your hair purple. Hit the sofa with your laptop. Whatever helps you feel comfortable and happy at work. We want to help you grow in your career and set you up for success – while also recognising the importance of a healthy work/life balance.
 
That’s why we offer 34 days of combined vacation and holidays, comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, plus life and AD&D insurance. We also offer a 401(k) with company match and no vesting schedule, a dog-friendly and casual office environment, and free lunches every other week. Because when you feel good, your work does too.
 
Diversity Statement
We are working hard to create a representative, inclusive and super-friendly team, because we know that different experiences, perspectives and backgrounds make for a better workplace. And that creates a better experience for our customers. MOO doesn’t discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion or belief, gender, national origin, age, sexual orientation, marital status, disability, veteran status or any other protected class
 
As a design and technology company we have a desire and a responsibility to build a business that represents the world around us. So we strive to create a values-driven, purposeful and highly empowered organisation that we are all proud to work for. And we are committed to continuous investment in building an open and inclusive environment, welcoming a diverse audience of candidates who see themselves working and thriving at MOO. Therefore, we’d like to invite you to complete this optional survey to help us evaluate our inclusion and diversity efforts. Completing this form is entirely voluntary and if you decide not to it won’t in any way affect your job application. We keep the information separate from your application and it is kept secure and confidential, it is only used to better our inclusion and diversity efforts. By submitting this information, you consent to MOO's processing of it for these purposes.

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
