Job description

We’re looking for Creative Leads who think in experiences.

The ones who don’t take a brief at face value. They pull it apart, find the opportunity inside, and ask the questions that lead somewhere more interesting.

At The Hanging House, that thinking becomes a strong idea, a clear story, and a world people can step into and remember. And when the idea leaves the deck and starts becoming real, you’re still there, making sure what gets delivered has the same magic as what was imagined.

What you’ll bring:

• 7 to 8 years of UAE experience in a creative role within the events or experiential industry
• A portfolio that shows big ideas carried all the way through to delivery
• Strong command of typography, colour, production, and 2D and 3D design, both static and motion
• Hands on design skills in Adobe Creative Suite and/or illustration
• The ability to turn briefs into creatively strategic proposals and present them with real storytelling
• Experience leading and motivating designers and copywriters across multiple projects at once
• Curiosity about culture, design and emerging technology, and a habit of putting it to use

If that sounds like the way you create and lead, we’d genuinely like to know you.
