Role Overview

Berman Group is a design-forward branding, PR, and events agency that builds enduring brands and unforgettable experiences for the world's most recognized real estate and hospitality clients. Our in-house creative studio produces work that spans corporate identity, large-scale development campaigns, environmental design, digital marketing, and more, all grounded in strategy and executed to the highest standard of craft.

The Senior Graphic Designer is a leadership role for an experienced designer and creative thinker ready to own projects, mentor emerging talent, and shape the visual identity of iconic brands.
