An exciting opportunity is available for a hybrid designer and strategic thinker to join a fast-paced, concept-driven team at the forefront of design innovation. This is a unique role positioned at the front end of design — where ideas are formed, narratives crafted, and experiences imagined across architecture, interiors, and masterplanning.

This role suits someone from a background in architecture, interior design, urban design or brand experience who thrives on storytelling, interdisciplinary thinking, and early-stage ideation. You’ll help define what comes before the brief — working across global studios on speculative ideas, design strategies, and pitch provocations.

Responsibilities

• Shape creative strategies for early-stage projects spanning buildings, interiors, and masterplans
• Develop pitch materials, vision decks, spatial frameworks, and concept narratives for real and speculative opportunities
• Translate abstract inputs into tangible ideas — from user journeys to spatial concepts and branded experiences
• Collaborate with a global network of architects, designers, strategists, and visualisers
• Work across sectors including residential, workplace, civic, education, and mixed-use
• Communicate big ideas clearly — whether through copy, storytelling, or presentations
• Contribute to the evolution of a strategic, globally connected design innovation team

Requirements

• 5–8 years of experience in a relevant design or strategy field (e.g., architecture, interiors, creative branding within the built environment industry)
• A portfolio showing strong conceptual thinking, narrative skills, and early-stage ideation
• Ability to connect ideas across spatial strategy, brand story, and user experience
• Comfortable with ambiguity — with a curious mindset and clear communication
• Strong storytelling and presentation skills — visual, verbal, and written
• Proficiency in InDesign and Keynote (Figma, Illustrator or similar tools are a plus)
• Experience in brand strategy, user journey mapping, or experiential design frameworks
• Interest in emerging technologies and speculative workflows
• Experience collaborating across studios or international teams

This role offers a chance to shape the future of design thinking — merging creativity, strategy, and storytelling to create work that transcends traditional boundaries. Apply now if this sounds like you!
