Lead Designer & Brand Creative Job at Swift Fit Events in Austin
Swift Fit Events, Austin, TX, United States, 78716
Swift Fit Events is a fast-growing Austin‑based company redefining how organizations and communities connect through wellness. We partner with corporations, conferences, and local communities across Texas to create high‑impact fitness, wellness, and connection‑driven experiences, from pop‑up classes to large‑scale festivals that help people feel better, connect more deeply, and thrive together.
The Role
We’re looking for a Lead Designer & Brand Creative who can bring our visual identity to life across every platform and touchpoint.
