You’ll be responsible for steering creative responses across a variety of retail and brand-led projects.

• Supporting and mentoring junior members of the team
• Participating in supplier meetings, installations, and quality control checks

What You’ll Bring:

• At least 5 years’ experience designing for 3D environments in a creative agency or in-house studio
• Proven experience within the luxury or premium retail space – beauty, fashion, skincare, or lifestyle brands preferred
• Expertise in Cinema 4D is essential – this role is not suited to those without it
• Confident communicator with the ability to lead presentations and client interactions
• Strong design eye, knowledge of materials, and a practical understanding of production
• Highly organised and able to manage multiple projects simultaneously
• Enthusiastic about sharing knowledge and helping others grow within the team

• Join a studio that values creativity, collaboration, and innovation
• Work on projects for high-end brands in beauty, lifestyle, and fashion
• A supportive, sociable team with regular events and studio culture
• Flexibility to balance work and life, with hybrid and flexible working available
• Benefits: 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, personal development fund, workplace pension, employee assistance programme, summer hours (July–August), quarterly and annual bonuses, regular socials
