It's easy to forget that Printulu is an organisation run by people for online printing orders. Especially when your order is just a few clicks away and the only human contact you ever really need to have is saying hi to the guy delivering your package. But of course, Printulu is all about people.
We want the best for you and to help you grow your small business. The only way to really make that happen is to have people who care about people at the centre of it all. This is why we've created a number of jobs in Johannesburg.
Printulu has grown massively over the last few years, and since covid, it's been full of challenges. It's an exciting, rewarding environment that drives each Printulian to go the extra mile for our customers. Our growth over the last year also means we're constantly looking to expand our team.
But just what exactly does it take to be a Printulian? And how does that affect our customers? I sat down with Leandi, our powerhouse Head of Human Development for a quick coffee at Social in Rosebank.

Core Values?#
- We create WOW moments through printing service;
- Embrace and Drive change;
- Solve problems and get things done;
- Do more with less;
- Take responsibility and grow with the company;
- Take risks and learn from our mistakes;
- We are team players;

How skilled do you need to be?#
We want the best for our clients.
The DTP Operator is the most specialised position as we're looking for an A-Player who knows all the ins and outs.
That being said, experience and the willingness to learn is the biggest factor. It's beneficial to have a specific qualification in the role you're applying for but not a deal-breaker. We want to give candidates the opportunity to learn and grow with us, regardless of their academic background.
Like Simon Sinek said "…You don't hire for skills, you hire for attitude. You can always teach skills…"

The Printulu vision for the team is to reach 100 staff members. I believe that building a company's culture is an ongoing project. Instilling trust, rituals and norms, shared beliefs and a common language helps in building a stronger culture.
