Senior Graphic Designer

Who You Are:

You are a hands-on designer with exceptional craft, strong conceptual thinking, and the confidence to own the work while making the people and ideas around you better. You can start with a strategy or creative brief, find the visual idea inside it, and build event identities and design systems with enough depth to live across stage, screen, environment, presentation, invitation, app, wayfinding, evening events, and activations.

You understand the why behind the work and consider the full attendee journey, not just the asset list. Creative Directors trust you with important work, producers know you will consider how something gets made, and account teams know you can hear the client behind the feedback and work within budgets. You present ideas with clarity and confidence, and you stay curious about AI, motion, technology, and emerging creative tools.
