  • Partner with and guide the Junior Designer on execution for licensee and secondary-category design needs
  • Ensure all category executions reflect core seasonal creative intent and maintain brand consistency

We'd Love to See:

  • 5+ years experience in visual, experiential, or spatial design, preferably within luxury or global retail
