Salary: Competitive, based on experience

Elisabeth Rose is a premier event production and experiential design agency specializing in custom environments, brand activations, live events, installations, and bespoke product fabrication.

We are seeking a Production Director to join our senior leadership team and oversee the day-to-day execution of our production operations.

This role is responsible for translating approved creative and client scope into clear production plans, schedules, staffing strategies, and on-site execution. This is a leadership position, but it is also a hands-on production role. The Production Director will be expected to actively support fabrication, warehouse preparation, installs, strikes, and on-site production as needed.

The ideal candidate is highly organized, decisive, experienced in managing multiple concurrent projects, and comfortable both leading a team and working alongside it.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage the master production schedule across multiple active projects

• Develop production timelines, milestones, staffing plans, and resource requirements

• Oversee workflow across production, fabrication, warehouse, installation, and strike

• Assign work and establish clear priorities for internal teams and freelance labor

• Coordinate purchasing, rentals, sourcing, logistics, and outside vendors

• Identify production risks, scheduling conflicts, and resource gaps in advance

• Lead production meetings and maintain accountability across teams

• Partner with Creative, Client Services, and Technical leadership to ensure projects are executable and delivered as approved

• Provide hands-on production support during builds, warehouse preparation, load-ins, installations, events, and strikes as required

• Step into active production work when deadlines, staffing, or project needs require additional support

• Maintain high standards for quality, efficiency, safety, and presentation

• Develop and improve internal production systems and processes as the company grows

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in event production, experiential marketing, fabrication, live events, operations, construction, or a related field

• 3+ years of team leadership or management experience

• Proven ability to manage multiple complex projects simultaneously

• Strong scheduling, staffing, logistics, and resource-management skills

• Experience managing vendors, contractors, and production labor

• Strong communication, organizational, and problem-solving skills

• Ability to make sound decisions quickly and operate independently

• Comfortable working in warehouse, fabrication, production, and event-site environments

• Willing and able to perform hands-on production work when needed

• Proficiency with project-management and scheduling tools

Experience in scenic fabrication, trade shows, AV, construction, exhibit production, or large-scale live events is a plus.

Ideal Candidate

The successful candidate is a strong operational leader who can see the full production picture while maintaining attention to detail. They are proactive, highly accountable, calm under pressure, and capable of creating structure across multiple moving parts.

This person leads from the front. They should be equally comfortable managing schedules and teams, coordinating vendors and logistics, and rolling up their sleeves to work alongside the production team when needed.

Schedule

This is a full-time, in-person role based in the Mooresville area.

Because of the nature of event production, occasional evenings, weekends, early mornings, and travel will be required.

Compensation

Elisabeth Rose is a premier event production and experiential design agency specializing in custom environments, brand activations, live events, installations, and bespoke product fabrication.

We are seeking a Production Assistant with graphic design experience to support the creation and production of custom branded elements for our events and installations.

This is a highly hands-on role that combines graphic design, fabrication, and production. The ideal candidate is creative, detail-oriented, technically capable, and excited to take a project from a digital file to a finished physical product.

Key Responsibilities

• Support the design and production of custom event graphics, signage, branded elements, gifting, and specialty projects

• Prepare and modify artwork for print, laser cutting, engraving, vinyl, CNC, and other production applications

• Create production-ready files using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and related design software

• Operate and assist with production equipment including laser cutters/engravers, vinyl cutters, printers, and other fabrication tools

• Assemble, finish, package, and prepare custom pieces for events and client delivery

• Assist with signage production, mounting, application, and installation

• Review artwork, dimensions, materials, and production specifications for accuracy

• Organize project files and maintain clear version control

• Support sourcing and ordering of materials as needed

• Assist the broader production team with warehouse preparation, builds, installs, and strikes

• Maintain organized workspaces, equipment, materials, and project inventory

• Help troubleshoot production challenges and identify efficient solutions

• Maintain a high standard of quality across all finished work

Qualifications

• Experience with graphic design and production artwork

• Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator required

• Working knowledge of Photoshop and Adobe Creative Suite

• Strong understanding of typography, layout, sizing, file preparation, and print production

• Comfortable learning and operating fabrication and production equipment

• Strong attention to detail and accuracy

• Ability to manage multiple projects and changing priorities

• Comfortable working with your hands and participating in physical production

• Strong organizational and problem-solving skills

• Ability to work independently while collaborating closely with a larger production team

Experience with laser engraving, vinyl production, large-format printing, signage, CNC routing, fabrication, event production, or experiential design is a strong plus.

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate enjoys both the creative and physical sides of production.

You may spend part of the day preparing artwork in Illustrator and the next part producing, assembling, finishing, or installing physical products.

We are looking for someone who takes pride in craftsmanship, notices small details, learns quickly, and is willing to jump in wherever needed to help get a project across the finish line.

This is not a traditional graphic design position. While design skills are an important part of the role, this person will work hands-on within our Special Projects and Production teams and should be excited about seeing ideas become physical objects and environments.

Schedule

This is a full-time, in-person position based in the Mooresville area.

Because we work in live events, occasional early mornings, evenings, weekends, and on-site event work may be required.

To Apply

Please submit the following via email to careers@elisabeth-rose.com:

• Resume

• Brief introduction

• Portfolio or examples of relevant design work

• Examples of any fabrication, signage, production, or hands-on creative work, if applicable

We are especially interested in seeing work that demonstrates your ability to take a creative concept from design through production and completion.
