You are a creative event and experiential marketing designer who believes experiences matter and that great design has the power to move people, tell stories, and bring brands to life in meaningful ways. You are energized by working with organizations that want to make an impact, and you want your creative work to live beyond a screen. So do we. Our agency designs and delivers immersive event experiences that help change lives for the better, and we are looking for an Event Designer who is excited to be part of that mission.

You are both creative and grounded. You love concepting bold event and design ideas, but you also understand how design translates into the real world including budgets, timelines, and production realities. You are detail oriented in the best way, with a strong visual eye and an instinct for how space, flow, lighting, materials, and moments come together to create a cohesive experience.

You think holistically about environments and how they look, feel, and function for guests.

You enjoy collaboration and thrive when partnering with producers, strategists, and clients to turn goals into compelling design solutions. You are comfortable presenting ideas, receiving feedback, and refining your work while protecting the integrity of the concept. You bring a solution oriented mindset, creativity, and flexibility to every project, and you take pride in producing thoughtful, high quality design work under tight deadlines.

You are self directed, organized, and able to manage multiple projects at once without losing momentum. You balance big picture thinking with precision execution and know when to push creatively and when to adapt practically. You are curious, proactive, and always looking for ways to elevate the work whether that is refining a layout, improving a guest touchpoint, or finding a smarter, more cost effective design solution.

The Event Designer plays a critical role in shaping the look and feel of our events and brand experiences. This role is ideal for someone who is creatively driven, visually strong, and excited to see their ideas come to life in physical spaces. You will collaborate closely with internal teams and partners to develop designs that are not only beautiful but also intentional, functional, and impactful.

Our culture is diverse, collaborative, and community oriented. We work smart, value creativity and ownership, believe excellence is a habit, and still know how to have fun along the way. If you are someone who wants to grow creatively, contribute meaningfully, and design experiences that truly resonate, you will feel right at home here.

We are seeking an Event Designer to collaborate with our team on developing and executing compelling event designs for events and experiential marketing. This role blends creative strategy and hands-on design
, translating event goals into cohesive, impactful environments while working within defined budgets and timelines.

• Partner with internal teams to develop creative event concepts and event design strategies
