At bpost, it’s no longer just about letters and parcels. Today, we are a leading player in logistics and e-commerce, with activities reaching across the globe.

But did you know that we’ve been printing our own stamps for more than 150 years in our in-house printing facility in Mechelen? It’s a unique place where tradition meets technology — and we are now looking for a new Project Lead with graphic expertise to help us maintain our exceptional quality standards.

Main responsibilities

You will be a key player in our production department in Mechelen, focusing on digital prepress, cost calculation, color management, and monitoring the entire production flow — from quotation to dispatch.

Your tasks include:

• Providing graphic project support through ERP software such as MultiPress
• Preparing quotations, calculating costs, and monitoring profit margins
• Following up and coordinating the entire production flow, including planning, preparation, follow-up, and postproduction
• Technical preparation of print jobs and plate production
• Graphic work using programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign
• Managing the digital press in accordance with ISO color standards
• Analyzing results and making adjustments based on post-calculations

What makes this place so unique?

• Our Mechelen printing facility produces around 100 million stamps each year, a significant portion of which is for international postal operators such as Portugal, Luxembourg, Gibraltar, and even the Vatican
• It’s a place where history and innovation truly come together — we’ve experimented with stamps that have taste and scent (like chocolate!), 3D effects, and even Augmented Reality
• The stamp printing house has existed since 1865 and is still considered one of the most specialized printing facilities in Western Europe

Your profile

• You have education or experience in graphic techniques, color management, and/or prepress
• You are proficient in Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, and familiar with an ERP system (MultiPress experience is a major plus)
• You work with precision, have a strong eye for detail, and respect high-quality standards (philatelists can be very demanding!)
• You enjoy a variety of tasks and know how to manage technical projects from quotation to delivery
• You are fluent in Dutch and/or French and have an excellent command of the second national language and English
• You are capable of overseeing the entire production flow and making adjustments when necessary
