Experiential Graphic Designer - Live Events

The Experiential Graphic Designer is a creative role that combines graphic design with spatial and environmental design to create immersive experiences. At WEBB, we are firm believers in practice as play, where our collaborative efforts allow us to push boundaries. We dream big, and we’re looking for a fellow dreamer to join us in creating unforgettable experiences. This role is perfect for those who are visual story tellers that love to engage and inspire attendees in a physical space. Whether it’s a branded environment, expo hall, over-the-top party, or a wayfinding system, this role is for the innovative thinkers who can seamlessly blend graphics with architecture and fabrication. If you love to make an impact on how people interact with their surroundings through visual and spatial design, then we want to hear from you.

This is not a traditional brand, digital, or UX/UI design role. The work is designed for the physical world and must hold up from concept through production and installation. This role is pivotal in crafting immersive and engaging visual experiences that seamlessly blend graphic design with physical spaces. As an Experiential Graphic Designer, you will focus on creating visually stimulating environments that enhance brand identity and user interactions. This position requires a blend of graphic design, 3D design, and spatial awareness, along with an understanding of materials, fabrication, large-format production, and installation. You will collaborate with producers, technical directors, fabricators (from our in-house shop), installers, and clients to create compelling designs that work within venue, schedule, budget, and production constraints.

QUALIFICATION & SKILLS //

Three or more years of professional experience in environmental, experiential, exhibition, event, retail, wayfinding, or other spatial graphic design.

Strong portfolio showcasing experience in creating highly visual environmental experiences, wayfinding systems, branded environments, and any other relevant experience.

Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design, Environmental Design, Exhibit Design, or a related field.
