Careers

At I.D.E.A. we have a strong reputation and proven history of inspiring and delivering design-led interventions and we are at an exciting point in our growth, with an ambitious five-year plan to broaden and deepen our design, creativity and innovation reach. 

You may already have heard of us through:

  • London Design Festival which first took place in 2003 and is one of the world’s most influential design events. LDF’s mission is to celebrate and promote London as the design capital of the world and as the gateway to the international creative community. 

  • London Design Biennale, a global gathering of the world’s most ambitious and imaginative designers, curators and design institutions.  Launched in 2016 and taking place every two years, LDB has recently completed its fourth edition at Somerset House.

  • In addition we have the Global Design Forum, a curated thought leadership programme that celebrates design and the minds that shape our future and more recently, Eureka, aimed at showcasing design and innovation by universities and research institutions. 

We have worked with some of the most significant companies in the world including Sony, Meta, LVMH, BMW, Google, Audi and we also work closely with the Mayor of London alongside other institutions in London and globally. Now in the next phase of our company's growth, we now look to increase our international footprint as well as expand our bespoke commissions in both the private and not-for-profit sectors.

Consisting of a core group of dedicated professionals, we are based in central London with a close-knit team working together to provide a range of expertise and experience in design, consulting, creative, project fulfilment, management and communications.

We are an equal opportunities employer and are committed to championing equality, diversity and inclusion in our workplace, so if you’re a suitably qualified applicant we encourage your application whatever your age, disability, gender, gender identity, race, religion or belief, sexual orientation or socio-economic background.
