Job Description

At Impact XM, we create experiences that move people. From large-scale exhibits to immersive branded environments, our work goes beyond design—it inspires, connects, and leaves lasting impressions. We’re looking for a Design Director to bring visionary thinking and hands-on leadership to our award-winning Creative team.

This is a chance to shape the future of how brands come to life in the physical world. If you thrive on turning big ideas into unforgettable experiences and love mentoring teams to do their best work, we’d love to meet you.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead the design of immersive, story-driven 3D environments that bring brands to life.
  • Dive deep into client brands and audiences to craft meaningful, on-strategy concepts.
  • Present bold ideas and compelling design narratives to clients and internal stakeholders.
  • Mentor, guide, and inspire a team of talented designers while keeping projects organized, accountable, and on track.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Creative, Strategy, and Production teams to ensure seamless project execution.
  • Translate big-picture ideas into construction-ready details, with an understanding of materials, fabrication, and build techniques.
  • Develop control packages and work within budgets, regulations, and brand guidelines.
  • Stay on the pulse of design and experiential trends, bringing fresh inspiration into every project.

What We’re Looking For

  • Education / Experience : BA / BFA in Industrial Design, Architecture, Scenic Design—or 10+ years of design and experiential marketing experience.
  • A portfolio of award-winning, innovative environmental designs that showcase your creative impact.
  • Proven leadership skills—experience mentoring, hiring, and managing creative talent.
  • Excellent communication skills—you can present with confidence and clarity, from the brainstorm table to the client boardroom.
  • A strong grasp of materials, construction techniques, and fabrication processes.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office; familiarity with MS Dynamics is a plus.
  • Experience working with pharmaceutical brands is a strong advantage.
  • Who You Are

  • A visionary and a doer—you balance big ideas with practical execution.
  • Entrepreneurial and proactive—you see challenges as opportunities.
  • A dynamic presenter and communicator, able to inspire clients and teams alike.
  • Passionate, ambitious, and always looking for what’s next.
