Creative Manager

Access Your Potential.
Join us to create and deliver experiences that inspire people, spark connection, and bring imagination to life—while having a lot of fun doing it.

We are seeking a Creative Manager based in the Las Vegas area. This is an in-person role that requires regular attendance at our Las Vegas office. In addition, the role may require occasional travel to visit vendors alongside the team, so comfort participating in in-person meetings and partner visits is important.

As a Creative Manager at Access, you will partner with Sales and Creative teams to develop strategic, experience-driven proposals and client presentations. You will shape the creative vision for corporate events, translating client goals into environments, moments, and experiences that are both compelling and executable.

This role operates in a high-volume, deadline-driven environment and requires strong organization, prioritization, and adaptability.

You know how to paint a picture clients can step into. You don’t just describe what an event will look like. You explain why it works, how it supports the audience, and how it comes together within real-world budgets and logistics.

This is not a graphic design or marketing role. It is an experiential role rooted in live events.
