About the role

Stephanie Gibbs Bookbinding in Los Angeles is seeking a part-time studio assistant focused on precision and reliability. The role combines production hand bookbinding tasks with administrative studio database duties. You will fold, sew, and cut by hand, and learn conservation techniques such as dry cleaning and minor paper repair. Training is provided, and the position values craftsmanship and careful attention to detail.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
