About The Position

Slitter / Rewinder Operators — Own the Last Step Before It Ships. Cursive prints labels and shrink-sleeve packaging for major consumer brands, and everything we make passes through slitting and rewinding before it goes out the door. That makes the rewinder the last set of eyes on the product — and one of the most important jobs in the plant. We’re a growing, well-capitalized company with modern equipment, a bright and clean facility, and a lean team where good work gets noticed. We’re hiring a full-time Rewinder Operator to slit, inspect, and rewind printed webs to customer specification. You’ll set your own jobs — cores, blades, tension, web alignment — and own the quality of every roll that leaves your machine. Slitting and rewinding experience is great if you have it. If you’ve run other production machinery and you’re mechanically inclined, we’ll train you on the rest.
