- Present design work to internal teams and clients, clearly articulating creative rationale & design decisions.
- Collaborate closely with creatives, strategists, producers, fabricators, and external partners to ensure successful implementation of design intent.
- Manage multiple workstreams and priorities simultaneously in a fast-paced environment while remaining adaptable and solutions-oriented.
- Act as creative lead on appropriately scaled design-forward projects.
- Serve as a mentor and resource for more junior designers, providing thoughtful feedback, guidance, and support.
- Actively participate in critiques, creative discussions, and collaborative working sessions that strengthen the broader team.
- Explore and advocate for new approaches, emerging technologies, and evolving design practices (including AI-supported workflows) to help advance the work and studio.
- Develop a strong understanding of client brands, business objectives, and experiential goals to ensure design solutions are both creatively compelling and strategically effective.
- Participate in onsite installations and live experiences as opportunities arise, helping ensure the integrity of the design vision.
- Contribute to a culture of curiosity, collaboration, experimentation, and craft.
