ABOUT US

 

Vive is an industry-leading event production agency specialising in the creation and delivery of corporate events and digital media. We work with a variety of clients across many sectors of industry, from finance and technology to construction, media and healthcare - with particular focus on B2B corporate events, conferences and award ceremonies.

​

Founded in 2013, Vive began as a small company managing a handful of clients. Today we have a talented team of event directors, producers, production managers and in-house designers, all working together to deliver high-profile events across the UK and beyond.

​

Continued growth and changes in market demand have created an opening for a Junior Graphic Designer to join our creative team. This is a fantastic opportunity for a motivated designer at the start of their career to gain hands-on experience working on live events and develop their potential within a friendly and small, yet growing company by working on a broad range of projects and client sectors.

This role is designed to offer progression as your skills and confidence grow. You will initially support the team across a range of projects, gaining hands-on experience in both the creative and technical aspects of event production. As you develop, you will have the opportunity to take ownership of your own projects, creating graphics for full awards ceremonies and live events, from concept through to delivery.
