* Design Ownership & Execution: Independently lead assigned design projects end-to-end, ensuring ≤10% of revisions are due to executional issues and all assets are delivered on schedule unless reprioritised.
* Creative Collaboration & Communication: Foster open, constructive relationships across departments and with peers. Maintain consistently positive feedback on collaboration, responsiveness, and clarity of communication.
* External Creative Standards: Support delivery of partner-facing creative with ≤5% of assets requiring significant rework due to misalignment with external brand guidelines or internal standards.
* Trend Integration & Visual Innovation: Regularly surface relevant trends from fashion, gaming, and luxury to inform and inspire the team's creative direction, contributing at least 1 innovative execution per quarter that pushes the brand forward.
What you will be responsible for;

What you will bring..
* Design visually compelling assets for in-game content, marketing campaigns, pitch decks, and brand partnerships—always delivering premium, high-impact visuals that reflect DREST's luxury and fashion-first positioning.
