Technical Production Designer

On the search for an experienced and detail-oriented Technical Production Designer is sought to join a team focused on delivering ambitious, highly complex installations across the UK within Brand Experiences/Activations. This role suits someone who thrives on precision, creative problem-solving, and the challenge of turning bold concepts into buildable, intelligent solutions.
The position is based primarily at a well-equipped studio in Surrey, with generous flexibility around how, when, and where work is carried out. Collaboration is central, with projects moving rapidly from concept to physical form—often within the same space. My client is happy to see FREELANCERS also, yet ideally will be looking for someone to step in permently. 

Key Responsibilities:

• Translate creative ideas into technically accurate, build-ready designs.
• Lead the technical design process from concept through to final delivery.
• Liaise directly with clients, suppliers, and fabricators to ensure clarity, feasibility, and alignment.
• Work closely with creative, production, and workshop teams to realise project goals.
• Manage individual workload and deadlines with autonomy.
• Contribute to problem-solving, prototyping, and iterative development.

Key Skills & Requirements:

• Solid background in technical design, with an emphasis on production, fabrication, or build.
• Acute attention to detail and the ability to foresee and resolve construction challenges.
• Proficiency in SketchUp or willingness to quickly gain fluency—used as the core design and communication tool across all teams.
• Familiarity with additional CAD or design tools, especially where precision engineering or complex forms are involved.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills; confident when working with diverse stakeholders.
• Self-motivated, adaptable, and committed to seeing projects through to completion.
• A passion for making complex, extraordinary ideas a reality.

Opportunity Highlights 

A unique chance to work on boundary-pushing projects in a fast-paced, collaborative setting. The role offers creative autonomy, meaningful collaboration, and flexibility in day-to-day working style.
