Designer – Collateral & Events

About the Role:

This role owns the design of IPSY’s printed collateral — the narrative and educational materials inside every subscription box — and provides creative support across IPSY’s event portfolio, from customer-facing activations to signature company events like the Brand & Creator Forum (IPSIES) and internal offsites. The role also supports packaging design for subscription boxes and related merchandise needs. It’s a role for a designer who can move fluidly between print-based editorial design and experiential/environmental creative, while maintaining IPSY’s brand standards across every touchpoint. 

This position reports to the Sr. Manager, Art Direction and can be remote from any of the states that IPSY is authorized to hire.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Collateral Design

• Design and produce collateral across all monthly and quarterly subscription programs: (IPSY Original, Extra, Ultimate, Wellness) as well as ad hoc offerings like The Edit
• Ensure designs align with the monthly 360 creative direction
• Maintain IPSY brand standards across layout, typography, imagery, and color
• Collaborate on image selects from monthly photo shoots
• Ensure all program materials feel connected to the brand, while preserving each program’s individual visual identity and bringing in select theme and seasonal elements
• Bring a point of view to layout and design treatment

Event Creative Support

• Partner with the Events Team, Producers, and other cross-functional stakeholders on creative needs across IPSY’s event portfolio — from smaller customer- and brand-facing activations to signature annual events like the Brand & Creator Forum (IPSIES) and company offsites
• Develop event mood boards, creative concepts, and overall visual direction/design systems in partnership with the Senior Manager, Art Direction and event leads
• Assist in establishing scope and deliverables in event planning
• Design a wide range of physical and environmental deliverables as needed per event, which may include: event collateral, signage, environmental graphics, product displays, merchandise/swag, photo moments and installations, presentation deck templates, etc.
• Design materials that highlight IPSY brand partners and sponsors, ensuring sponsor visibility is integrated thoughtfully into the overall event creative concept 
• Review all creative executions against IPSY brand standards
• Ensure every detail, from the overall environment down to the smallest branded touchpoint, feels intentionally connected to the event’s creative concept

Packaging Design

• Design packaging layouts and graphics for subscription delivery boxes, advent calendars, and other merchandise needs, working within established templates and dielines
• Apply correct brand elements and imagery within existing packaging specifications
• Maintain consistency with IPSY's brand identity and visual standards across all packaging
• Partner with internal stakeholders on revisions and final approvals
• Review printed samples and packaging prototypes, flagging any design-related issues

What We Are Looking For:

• 3+ years of design experience, ideally spanning both print/editorial and/or event/experiential design
• Strong print/editorial design skills, with experience designing for narrative or educational content, not just marketing collateral
• Experience in experiential, environmental, or event design — comfortable designing for physical spaces, not just screens or print
• Comfort designing within existing packaging templates and dielines
• Ability to maintain a consistent visual system across a wide range of formats and physical touchpoints simultaneously
• Comfort managing variable scope and ambiguity, given the range of deliverables across different event types
• Strong collaborator, able to partner closely with Production, Events, Editorial, and cross-functional teams from concept through execution

Bonus if You Have:

• Prior experience conceptualizing packaging design from scratch, including working directly with dielines

Work Authorization:
Must be legally authorized to work full-time in the U.S. without requiring current or future visa sponsorship.

What We Offer: 

• Competitive base salary & bonus program
• Medical, dental & vision insurance
• 401(k) plan with company match
• Paid Time Off
• Work from home flexibility
• Free IPSY Extra subscription
• Learning & development programs
