Job Summary

Own hands-on creative across concept and execution, translating bold ideas into tangible environments while guiding teams and shaping compelling client narratives.

  • Lead end-to-end creative from pitch to final build with a focus on craft and rapid problem-solving.
  • Shape narratives and visuals across environments, installations, and experiences to drive belief and measurable outcomes.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Great Work — A portfolio of ideas that live beyond the slide deck. Work that exists in environments, systems, installations, or interactions. Show us things that were actually built.
  • Pitch Leadership — You know how to shape and sell ideas in competitive environments. You understand what converts opportunity into business — and you can carry a room.
  • Storytelling — You craft narratives that capture attention, build belief, and move clients to act. From concept decks to client presentations, your work reads and performs.
  • Team Leadership — You elevate the people around you. Clear direction, strong taste, and the generosity to help others do their best work. Not a gatekeeper. A multiplier.
  • Taste & Clarity of Vision — You understand the difference between novelty and meaning, spectacle and substance. You push for both.
  • HANDS-ON CRAFT: This isn’t a role for someone who only directs from a distance.
  • We want someone who can get into the work — who can open a file, shape a frame, and contribute meaningfully to what’s on screen or in the room. Specifically, we’re looking for hands-on fluency in:
  • - Graphic and/or digital design — Visual systems, spatial graphics, concept visualization, motion
  • - 3D — Environmental modeling, spatial concept development, real-time rendering
  • Both is exceptional. One is the floor. Either way, your hands-on capability should show up in how you direct, how you review, and how quickly you help a team find the right answer.
  • You’ll lead creative across the full arc: from early pitch and concept development through to final execution. That means being as sharp in a competitive pitch room as you are on a build site walkthrough.
