Assistant to the Creative Director — Live PerformancePrepping out of Hollywood, Los Angeles.We are a small design studio seeking a highly organized, detail-oriented, and creatively fluent Assistant to the Creative Director to support the creative direction of a live performance. This is a full-time, hands‑on role for someone who thrives on structure, visual storytelling, and keeping a fast‑moving creative process on track. You'll work directly with the Creative Director, helping shape and organize the visual and logistical backbone of the production — from research and reference gathering to deck‑building, budget tracking, and day‑to‑day scheduling.
About the Role:
This position sits at the intersection of creative support and production coordination. You'll be building presentations that communicate ideas clearly and beautifully, organizing a growing library of visual research, and making sure nothing — from a Zoom invite to a budget line — falls through the cracks.

Build and refine dynamic, visually polished decks and presentations in Keynote for creative pitches, production meetings, and stakeholder reviews

Manage communications — organizing correspondence, following up on outstanding items, and keeping information easy to retrieve
Schedule and set up Zoom calls and meetings, and help keep the creative team on schedule and on deadline
Provide general organizational and administrative support to the Creative Director, including occasional personal assistant tasks (details to be discussed)
Who You Are:
4+ years of professional experience in a related field (production, design, live events, broadcast, or similar)
Proficient in Keynote, with the ability to build clean, dynamic, presentation-ready decks
Comfortable in Google Sheets for scheduling, tracking, and team coordination
