If you have 5–10 years’ experience in a design agency or on the brand/VM side, and a good understanding and interest in retail design, this is your opportunity to collaborate with a dynamic team where your contributions truly matter.

The Role

You will be the main link between our clients and our teams, turning ideas into retail experiences. From store designs and pop-ups to concessions and shop-in-shops, you will oversee projects from inception to completion, ensuring they are delivered on time, within budget, and to the highest standards.

Based at our Lutterworth HQ, we operate with 4 days in the office and 1 day from home. The role also involves regular travel across the UK, Europe, and occasionally globally, to engage with clients, suppliers, and retail sites.

  • Proven ability to manage projects from brief to delivery.
  • Passion for retail, design, and brand experiences.
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills.
  • Highly organised with the ability to juggle multiple projects.
  • Detail-oriented, proactive, and a positive team player.
  • Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel.
  • Bonus: experience in beauty, athleisure, footwear, sport, or fashion

Why Join Us

We are ambitious, fearless, and collaborative. Here, ideas turn into reality.

You will:

  • Work with exciting brands across beauty, fashion, sport, and lifestyle.
  • Lead creative projects from store design to pop-ups, concessions, and shop-in-shops.
  • Travel across the UK, Europe, and occasionally globally.
  • Join a supportive, energised team in a countryside HQ.
