Our mission is to create unforgettable brand memories in real life and real time. We operate exactly where the future of brands takes shape: fostering genuine human connections in Brand Spaces, supported by digital layers.
From April 2026 we are looking for a Team Lead who combines strong creative vision with a strategic mindset for building brands. You understand that space is a marketing channel and know how to translate complex brand strategies into physical reality—from bespoke installations to large-scale retail rollouts.
WHAT YOU DO
- Translate Brand Strategy into Space: You lead the creative process, transforming Brand Marketing objectives into immersive, feasible, and impactful spatial designs.
- Team Leadership: You guide a team of six designers, fostering their growth in conceptual design and technical execution while ensuring they understand the "why" behind every brand experience.
- Define Standards: You set the benchmark for high-end renderings (Enscape/Keyshot) and technical planning (Rhino), ensuring designs are not only buildable but effectively stage the brand.
- Innovation & Material Strategy: You select materials and technologies that elevate the brand experience, keeping a close eye on trends in Retail Brand Marketing.
- Process Ownership: You oversee the workflow, aligning with 2D Design and Project Management to ensure efficiency in a fast-paced agency environment.
- Hands-on Problem Solving: While you lead, you remain close to the craft, supporting the team with detailed planning for complex window and in-store campaigns.
WHO YOU ARE
- Educational Background: A degree in Spatial Design, Product Design, Industrial Design, or Architecture.
- Experience: 8+ years of professional experience in Retail Brand Marketing, exhibition, or POS design. You have a proven track record of bringing brands to life through space.
- Brand Affinity: You have a deep understanding of Brand Building and marketing mechanics. You don't just design spaces; you design experiences that sell and connect.
- Leadership Skills: Experience in leading or mentoring teams, with the ability to motivate designers to perform at a high level.
- Tech Stack: Expert knowledge of Rhino, Enscape, and Keyshot.
- Technical Mindset: A solution-oriented thinker who anticipates technical challenges early and balances aesthetic requirements with production constraints.
- Communication: You communicate confidently in English, enjoy presenting to clients, and can translate complex technical details for stakeholders.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- DIVERSITY & PEOPLE: Come as you are! At LIGANOVA we live and breathe a culture of inclusion and diversity fascinates us. Uniqueness is celebrated and promoted, which is why we are united by the common mission "Create the best version of yourself". We believe that diversity offers the greatest creative potential.
- GREEN MINDSET: Innovative solutions and our Green Board provide impulses for more sustainability in the office and beyond. With the Green Campaign Cycle initiative, we proactively introduce our customers to the topic of green transformation and support them with our expertise during implementation.
- INTERNATIONALITY: In addition to our HQ in Stuttgart, our offices in Berlin and Amsterdam have also grown into fully operating branch offices. We offer you networking and regular exchange within the units - a far cry from rigid team structures.
