Graphic Designer​/Project Manager

• Location 7676 Interactive Way,Indianapolis, IN, 46278,United States
• Job Category Corporate
• Employee Type Full Time Exempt

At Lids Sports Group, we don’t just sell hats — we fuel fandom. As the largest licensed sports retailer in North America, we bring sports, fashion, and culture together in more than 1,300 stores nationwide. Headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, Lids delivers premium, fan-driven products and unforgettable retail experiences.

Our stores feature officially licensed headwear and apparel from collegiate and professional teams, alongside top brands like Champion, Nike, New Era, Lululemon Athletica, and Mitchell & Ness. We’re also the industry leader in on-demand customization, offering in-store embroidery that turns everyday gear into one-of-a-kind statements.

From specialty concept stores for the NBA and NHL to iconic clubhouse destinations for the Yankees and Dodgers, we create immersive retail experiences that celebrate the teams fans love. Through collaborations with brands like Marvel, Peanuts, and The Walt Disney Company, Lids continues to redefine how fans represent their teams — in style.

This role combines strong graphic design craft with hands-on project management. It supports Ebbets Field and Lids, and the person is expected to hold each brand’s voice, visual standards, and audience distinctly.

The designer produces assets across email, paid media, organic social, the website, and in-store, and is responsible for those channels reading as one cohesive brand. Equally important, this person owns the traffic of the work: when a campaign goes out, they are the one holding every piece of it together across channels, chasing the inputs they need, and keeping the team accountable to deliverables.

That makes them the natural center of the project — hence the project management half of the title.

This is a role for someone highly independent who can operate with minimal direction, in a fast-moving retail environment.

Creative Director

• Design and build assets in Figma across email, paid media, organic social, website, in-store signage, and events.
• Own a campaign end to end across every channel it touches — concepting, building, and adapting a single campaign into email, paid, social, site, and in-store executions that read as one thing.
• Craft seasonal campaign assets that connect brand storytelling with trend-relevant design.
• Interpret briefs and execute against brand guidelines and marketing and merchandising strategy.
• Adapt national campaigns into local, market-ready assets and promotional messaging.
• Handle image cropping, resizing, and retouching to the specs of each channel and placement.
• Review large image libraries and make on-brand image selects for each channel and campaign.
• Own the campaign calendar across channels. Proactively reach out to each channel owner — email, paid media, social, website, retail — to establish what they need and when, rather than waiting for briefs to come in.
• Run all design work through Click Up so the team has one source of truth on requests, deadlines, and status.
• Hold the team accountable to the inputs required to build graphics — copy, product imagery, offers, approvals — and chase them down so nothing stalls.
• Manage the team inside Figma: keep files, components, and handoffs organized so anyone can find current work and know what is approved.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams across marketing, merchandising, retail, and HR to bring design assets to life.
• Absorb ad hoc and fast-turn requests without losing the larger campaign calendar.
• Anticipate what each channel will need ahead of launches and get in front of it.
