Event Designer

What We Seek...
We are looking for an Event Designer to execute branded environment projects under the direction of the Senior Event Designer. You’ll receive full projects or specific scopes — a single activation, a portion of a larger venue build, a discrete deliverable inside a multi-element job — and carry them from concept through print‑ready production files. The Senior Event Designer sets the bar for process and quality - your job is to hit it consistently while sharpening your own eye for spatial branding and large‑format execution. This is a studio‑based role for a designer who wants to grow inside a high‑output experiential and event‑branding environment. You’ll work on the survey‑to‑print pipeline daily, learn Britten’s product portfolio inside and out, and build the foundation to eventually lead projects of your own.

Job Summary and Job Functions

Take projects assigned by the Senior Event Designer — full builds or specific scopes — and execute them through print‑ready production files

Work from site survey packages (photos, dimensions, annotated plans, vendor notes) provided or interpreted by the Senior Event Designer

Develop concepts, renderings, mockups, and elevations using Adobe Creative Suite, SketchUp, and related tools, following team standards for file structure and presentation

Build print‑ready files with correct bleed, finished sizes, color management, and material callouts aligned to Britten’s production capabilities

Apply Britten’s product portfolio — large‑format decal, vinyl, mesh, fabric, tension frames, BoxPop, scenic foam — to the surfaces and moments the Senior Event Designer has specified, and flag when an alternate product might serve better

Follow the templates, checklists, and design standards set by the Senior Event Designer; surface gaps or improvements rather than working around them

Maintain clean, organized project files so any team member can pick up where you left off

Self‑review work against Britten’s production and brand quality standards before sending it up for Senior review

Hit deadlines and communicate proactively when scope, complexity, or input gaps put a deadline at risk

Partner with Sales, Project Management, Production, and Install teams on day‑to‑day project execution

Escalate questions and decisions to the Senior Event Designer rather than guessing on intent or quality calls

Contribute to team knowledge — vendor notes that worked well, product applications that solved a tricky install, files worth templating

Build expertise across Britten’s full product portfolio with the goal of independently spec’ing the right product for the right application

Develop client‑facing skills through gradually expanded responsibilities as judged ready by the Senior Event Designer

Contribute design ideas in team reviews — the role grows by what you bring to it

Work the production art queues as assigned by the Art Manager

Assist with marketing needs within the Art department scope

Align with and believe in the company core values: We Say Yes, We Hustle, We Think Bigger, We Keep Promises, We Build People Up
