About this position

We’re searching for a multi-talented professional to fill a unique dual role as our Project & Creative Lead. This role will be part Project Manager (focusing on 2-3 major construction or event projects each year, such as Playerbox expansions) and part Creative/Art Director (leading brand design, visual identity, and marketing collateral when not overseeing construction). If you have a knack for organizing complex projects and a keen eye for design, this might be the perfect fit!

• Design Support:
• Provide creative direction for marketing collateral, event branding, promotional images, and signage.
• Collaborate with internal teams (marketing, product, etc.) to ensure cohesive brand messaging.
• Visual Merchandising & CI Management: Propose and implement new design ideas that enhance customer experiences, especially during non-construction periods.

3. Cross-Functional Collaboration
• Teamwork: Work closely with professionals from multiple disciplines (legal, engineering, international relations) to align project and brand goals.
• Creative Brainstorming: Contribute design insights to ad campaigns, social media visuals, or event concepts, bringing a fresh, artistic perspective.
• Continuous Improvement: Gather feedback from stakeholders and end-users to refine and improve both construction processes and creative outputs.

• Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent experience) in Project Management, Architecture, Civil Engineering, Design, Visual Arts, Event Management, or a related field.
• 1–3 years of experience in construction management, event coordination, or creative direction. (Candidates with hybrid backgrounds are encouraged to apply.)
