About The Position

The Company Czarnowski Collective is, quite literally, the sum of its parts. It’s a banner, under which, you’ll find four distinct studios: Czarnowski, Public School, Infusion, and assembly. While each studio has unique capabilities, the approach to building stand-out brand experiences is the same: We wonder. That means, every project is met with informed curiosity and imagination to deliver remarkable experiences that inspire audiences around the world. Czarnowski combines operations, strategy, design, and fabrication to create exhibits and events that engage communities, generate brand enthusiasm and educate consumers. It’s been over 75 years since we’ve opened our doors, but we’re still not resting on our reputation or accolades. We’re wondering “what if…,” anticipating what’s next, and embracing our role within Czarnowski Collective as forward-thinkers for forward-thinking brands. Joining Czarnowski Collective means the opportunity to be more than a number, more than a job title, more than a spectator. We are a collective of dreamers and thinkers, doers and makers…and we’re in search of more of the same to join the ranks.
