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

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