Remote (UK-based candidates only) | Full-Time
Reporting into: Head of Exhibition Delivery
About PS8
PS8 is a leading event production and exhibition management company specialising in the food and drink sector. We help brands exhibit at trade shows across the UK and internationally, manage UK Pavilion stands at major international events such as SIAL, Anuga, and PLMA, and deliver bespoke stand design and build services through our PS8 Create studio. We work in close partnership with organisations including FDEA, DEFRA, and the Department for Business and Trade, supporting UK food and drink brands to grow their export and domestic trade presence.
The Role
We're looking for a Graphic Designer with hands-on exhibition experience to join our growing team. You'll bring strong project management skills and a collaborative mindset, thriving in an environment where your creativity and ambition can genuinely develop.
Reporting into our Head of Exhibition Delivery, you'll deliver high-quality exhibition stand design work independently, liaise directly with customers to support them on their designs, while also contributing to the growth of the wider team - sharing knowledge, supporting colleagues, and helping shape a supportive, stimulating working environment.
Key Responsibilities
- Utilise proven exhibition expertise to create visually compelling, commercially effective stands on time and within budget
- Manage multiple concurrent projects while balancing priorities and maintaining creative standards
- Collaborate closely with clients, brand managers, sales, marketing, and operations teams, fostering a culture of teamwork and shared success
- Apply industry knowledge to design 3D exhibition stand renderings that reflect brand identity and commercial objectives
- Manage client accounts, offering exceptional communication skills, customer service and on time project delivery.
- Produce exhibition stand drawings that ensure feasibility and compliance in terms of health and safety standards and timely fabrication
- Produce provisional floorplans for UK Pavilion groups relating to our show calendar
- Stay updated on emerging trends, technologies, and best practices, using insights to help the team grow and enhance workflow efficiency
Qualifications & Experience
- Extensive exhibition experience, ideally in food and drink events, trade shows, or consumer-facing exhibitions
- Proficiency in CAD, 3D modelling, and visualisation software such as AutoCAD, SketchUp, and Vectorworks
- Strong internal and external communication and interpersonal skills to thrive in a growing and dynamic team environment
- Ability to deliver complex projects independently while collaborating effectively with fellow team members
- Knowledge of materials, fabrication techniques, exhibition logistics, compliance, and safety regulations
Desired Skills & Experience
• Experience working with modular and bespoke stands at major exhibition trade shows
• Knowledge of sustainable exhibition practices and tools to enhance visitor engagement
• Experience integrating AV, digital media, and interactive elements into stand designs
• Flexibility to travel for exhibition supervision and installation
Salary
£30,000–£36,000 base salary (DOE, national rate).
This reflects UK-wide benchmarks for a midweight-to-senior exhibition/graphic designer with CAD and 3D visualisation skills (national mid-range roles typically span roughly £29k–£45k depending on experience), with scope to flex toward the upper end for candidates with strong bespoke stand and AV/interactive experience.
What We Offer
• Fully remote working with a flexible, supportive team culture
• The opportunity to develop your creativity and ambition within a growing team
• Direct involvement in high-profile UK Pavilion and government-partnered events
• A collaborative environment with genuine knowledge-sharing across the team
• Competitive salary
• 25 days annual leave
