Description

Small Girls PR is looking for an Experiential Designer to join our Experiential service line, helping bring our clients’ most imaginative ideas to life through thoughtful, strategic design. You’ll help define the physical storytelling that makes SGPR’s work feel alive, translating creative concepts into immersive environments that spark conversation and cultural connection. This role sits at the intersection of spatial architecture and brand storytelling, bridging creativity and craft. From large-scale pop-ups and brand activations to dinner tablescaping and mailers, you’ll design moments that immerse, delight, and inspire. You’ll collaborate closely with our experiential producers by concepting, designing, and visualizing 3D environments that connect people with brands in memorable ways. Your designs will shape the look, feel, and flow of experiences that make headlines, drive engagement, and bring ideas off the page and into the world. Note: This role is based in our NYC or LA office on a hybrid schedule (two days weekly in-office). How you’ll make an impact: Translate creative concepts into compelling 3D environments, installations, and branded spaces that tell a story. Create design decks, mood boards, sketches, renderings, and floor plans that clearly communicate spatial intent and creative direction. Work in 3D rendering tools (ex. SketchUp or similar) to visualize environments with accuracy and artistry. Collaborate with producers and fabricators to ensure design integrity through pre-production and build-out. Participate in site visits, vendor sourcing, fabrication reviews, prop styling and on-site installation support. Present design concepts confidently to clients, vendors, and internal teams, bringing ideas to life through clear storytelling and visuals. Stay curious and current on design trends, materials, fabrication methods, and emerging technologies that elevate physical experiences. Manage multiple projects and timelines, maintaining attention to detail and a high creative standard. Why we’ll love you: You have 3–8+ years of experience in 3D, environmental, or experiential design, ideally within a creative agency or studio. You have a deep understanding of spatial storytelling — how design, light, texture, and color shape how people feel and interact in a space. You think conceptually but execute practically, balancing big creative ideas with technical feasibility. You’re fluent in 3D tools like SketchUp, Rhino, Cinema4D, Vectorworks, or similar 3D design tools plus the Adobe Creative Suite for design visualization. You’re familiar with rendering tools like rendering tools Enscape, V-Ray, or KeyShot. You can present and communicate design intent clearly and confidently to clients and collaborators alike. You thrive in collaborative, cross-functional environments and enjoy working closely with producers, fabricators and other vendors to bring experiences to life. You have an eye for materials, finishes, and fabrication details, understanding how to design for both beauty and buildability. You stay ahead of trends in experiential, spatial, and environmental design, always thinking about how brands can show up in new and unexpected ways. Why You'll Love Us: Atypical Time Off - Generous PTO that scales with tenure, in addition to Summer Fridays, Day of Rests for mental health, Caregiving days, and time off for Unsick Days dedicated to preventative care Deep Work Focus - Our Smalls In Sync program ensures you have dedicated time for collaboration and strategic solo work Comprehensive Benefits - A 100% employer-covered medical plan, 401k match up to 4%, dental, vision, and more Innovation Leadership - Our agency was amongst the first to offer client brand campaigns on TikTok (back when it was still called Musical.ly), has been recognized for pioneering unique HR policies live on The Today Show, and our AI Leadership committee has been training our employees at the intersection of PR and AI for over two years (not two months!) Vibrant Culture - Employee-led committees shape company policy and organize team celebrations from book clubs to outings SGPR is open to discussions with candidates from a wider range of experience and skills for this particular role — as a result the Experiential Designer salary is $75,000 - $120,000, commensurate with years of experience, scope of responsibilities, P&L and managerial experience.
