Event Design Manager information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an Event Design Manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Event Design Manager, you need expertise in event planning, creative design, budgeting, and vendor management, often supported by a background in hospitality, design, or event management. Familiarity with design software (such as Adobe Creative Suite), event management platforms, and CAD tools is commonly required. Outstanding communication, problem-solving, and leadership skills help you collaborate with clients and guide teams effectively. These skills ensure visually impactful, well-executed events that meet client objectives and stay within budget.

How does an Event Design Manager typically collaborate with vendors and internal teams during the planning process?

As an Event Design Manager, you'll frequently coordinate with both internal stakeholders—such as marketing, sales, and logistics teams—and external vendors like florists, lighting specialists, and furniture rental companies. This role requires clear communication to ensure your creative vision aligns with the event’s objectives and practical constraints. Regular meetings, site visits, and detailed mood boards or design proposals are common tools used to keep everyone aligned throughout the planning process. Building strong relationships with trusted vendors and fostering teamwork internally are key to managing changes smoothly and delivering a cohesive event experience.

What is an Event Design Manager?

An Event Design Manager is a professional responsible for conceptualizing, planning, and executing the visual and experiential aspects of events. They work closely with clients and event planners to create cohesive themes, layouts, décor, lighting, and overall ambiance that align with the event’s objectives. Their role often includes managing budgets, sourcing vendors, overseeing setup, and ensuring that every element contributes to a memorable and seamless guest experience. Strong creative, organizational, and communication skills are essential for this position.

What is the difference between Event Design Manager vs Event Coordinator?

The Event Design Manager focuses on the creative and aesthetic aspects of events, leading design teams and ensuring visual concepts align with client goals. In contrast, the Event Coordinator handles logistical details, vendor management, and on-site coordination. Both roles are essential in event planning but differ primarily in their focus and responsibilities.

Job description

Bear Event Design is a creative event design and décor company serving Denver and the Rocky Mountain region. We specialize in corporate events, experiential activations, and social celebrations, delivering high-impact environments through thoughtful design and precise execution.
As a member of our Event Crew, you are on the front line of bringing our events to life. This is a hands-on, fast-paced role responsible for executing installs, supporting warehouse operations, and ensuring our products and environments meet the standard our clients expect. We move quickly, expect a lot from each other, and take pride in doing things the right way. This role is best suited for individuals who take ownership, operate with urgency, and care deeply about the quality of their work.
This role is directed by Event Leads and our Warehouse Manager, but success requires more than simply following instructions. You will be given clear priorities for the day, but what sets top performers apart are how you move through your work, manage your time, and drive tasks to completion.
Your responsibilities:
  • Support the loading and preparation of inventory for upcoming events, ensuring all items are packed accurately, safely, and efficiently for transport
  • Execute on-site installations including furniture, bars, drape, structures, and décor elements, following direction while maintaining awareness of quality, safety, and detail
  • Participate in event strike and load-out, ensuring all items are handled, packed properly, and returned to the warehouse in good condition
  • Represent Bear professionally on-site, maintaining a positive, respectful, and service-oriented presence in front of clients and partners
  • Maintain high standards of product care through cleaning, organizing, repairing, and returning inventory in the warehouse
  • Work across warehouse projects during non-event days, contributing to ongoing improvements, organization, and readiness for future events
  • Support your team by stepping in where needed, maintaining momentum, and contributing to a productive, positive work environment
Who you are:
  • A reliable, hardworking individual who shows up ready to contribute and be part of a team
  • Operate with a strong sense of urgency and ownership, with a strong internal drive to get things done without being asked repeatedly
  • Detail-focused and takes pride in the quality and completeness of your work
  • A team player who contributes to a positive environment and is willing to step in wherever needed
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, physically demanding environment with changing priorities
  • A problem solver who does not shy away from challenges and takes ownership of outcomes
  • Professional and self-aware, understanding that your attitude and conduct directly impact the client experience
  • Motivated to grow, learn new skills, and take on increasing responsibility over time
Requirements:
  • Valid driver’s license in good standing
  • Reliable transportation to and from the warehouse and event sites
  • Ability to lift 50–75 lbs consistently and work on your feet for extended periods
  • Availability for early mornings, late nights, weekends, and occasional travel throughout Colorado
  • Willingness to work both in the warehouse and on-site at events
  • Experience in events, production, or hands-on environments is a plus, but not required
Why Bear?
Bear Event Design is a creative event design and rental company serving Denver and the Rocky Mountain region. We specialize in corporate events, experiential activations, and social celebrations, delivering high-impact environments through thoughtful design and precise execution.
Our team operates at the pace of a production company with the mindset of a design studio, creating custom, elevated experiences across a high volume of events each year. We take pride in our collaborative culture, high standards, and commitment to delivering exceptional work.
This role is an entry point into our production team. Individuals who demonstrate strong ownership, consistency, and performance have the opportunity to grow into Event Lead roles and other specialized positions within the company over time.
  • Creative, collaborative team focused on high‑impact work in the event space.
  • Competitive compensation with Medical, Dental, & Vision Health Plans
  • HSA with Annual Employer Contribution
  • 401K with Employer Match
  • Short Term Disability, Long Term Disability, and Life Insurance
  • Generous PTO policy

Pay Range
  • Starting at $22/hour, but higher rates based on experience and training goals
