With studios in both London and New York, their work spans installations, workplace design, large-scale environmental graphics and public art, always with a strong conceptual and story-led approach.

– Proven experience managing permanent team members (even if just one)
– The confidence to lead and present ideas, balanced with a collaborative and grounded mindset
– The ability to juggle creative ambition with budget and time constraints
The role involves input across multiple workstreams, from early concept through to production and delivery. A strategic and practical thinker who enjoys shaping creative direction while getting into the detail will thrive here.
