What are the responsibilities and job description for the Exhibit Designer position at Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA)?
Job Description
Blair Inc. is a custom design and fabrication exhibit house that has served the tradeshow and museum exhibit worlds for over 70 years. We are looking for a highly creative individual with a drive to succeed to become the newest member of our exhibit design team. The exhibit world is a fast paced industry with ever-evolving client needs, and we are looking for a candidate that thrives in this environment, who possesses a strong work ethic, a drive to learn & grow, can take ownership of a project, and follow it through from concept to completion. Our designers also generate the detail drawings that our fabricators build from, so knowledge of construction techniques is a big plus.

Members of the design team play an important role in that by working closely with the fabrication, project management, and I&D teams to adapt designs as requirements change, build on past lessons learned, and incorporate production efficiencies with great design.
